Heritage: The Diverse History of the Early Church
It’s been said that Sunday morning is the most segregated hour of the week, but that hasn’t always been the case. The early church drew from diverse nations and people to spread the gospel, but these voices have been largely forgotten over time. This four-week series from the book of Acts lifts up key occasions when significant contributions were made to the kingdom by marginalized believers during the very early days of the church.
Using This Series Guide
The Series Guide is a comprehensive resource designed to help you lead your congregation through this sermon series. It includes weekly sermon outlines, discussion questions, and key theological insights to support your teaching preparation.
Each guide has been thoughtfully crafted to provide you with both depth and flexibility as you prepare your messages.
This series includes 4 weeks of content.
The Series Guide is not a word-for-word sermon script. It's not meant to replace your own study and preparation, but rather to complement it with additional resources and structure.
It also doesn't include all media assets - those are available in the downloads section.
We recommend starting with the series overview to understand the big picture themes. Then, for each week, review the scripture passages, main points, and illustrations provided.
Use the discussion questions for small groups or to spark your own thinking. Feel free to adapt any content to fit your congregation's specific needs and context.
