The Simple Gospel: Midnight Praises and Prison Breaks

In this study of Acts 16, Gavin explores the foundational moments of the early church, from the strategic discipleship of Timothy to the first European conversion with Lydia. The message highlights the power of walking in genuine faith, even when that path leads to persecution and a dark, damp Roman jail. While Paul and Silas sang praises at midnight, a miraculous earthquake opened prison doors, leading to the most consequential question a human can ask: “What must I do to be saved?”. This sermon strips away the unnecessary rituals of modern tradition to focus on the core truth—that salvation comes solely through believing in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
