Via Church

Our text today took place in Athens, Greece on Mars Hill right next to the Acropolis. Some of us who have traveled to Albania have sat and read these words on the rock hill looking down on the ruins of the marketplace that contained the altars created to false gods. This sermon by Paul is a classic example of contextualization of the gospel to match the understanding of the hearers. The book of Acts ushered in the Mission Period of the redemptive story. We are still living in this mission period today.
