Bridge Builders

Acts 8.4-8  – Bridges can be breath taking, both in the appearance of some that are engineering marvels as well as those that question one’s sanity for attempting to cross.  Bridges are necessary if you want to cross from location to another where the span is greater than what a person might be able to jump.  The book of Acts has some bridges as well.  These bridges span barriers that had been in place for centuries.  It’s a cultural barrier that is crossed taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ into new areas.
