Unstoppable:The Church on Mission

The book of Acts is the story of how the Holy Spirit used ordinary people to launch an extraordinary movement—the Church. From Jerusalem to the ends of the earth, the mission of God moved forward through bold preaching, sacrificial living, and Spirit-empowered obedience. That same mission is still alive today. In this 15-week series, we’ll walk through the book of Acts and discover how God wants to use us—right here, right now—as part of His unstoppable plan to bring hope to the world.

Day 1: Integrity that shines when lies surround you

There are moments when faithful people face smear campaigns, rumors, and half-truths. Stephen stood in that storm with a calm face that reflected heaven, not panic. Integrity matters because when it collapses, communities fracture; when it holds, people glimpse the Kingdom. You do not have to scramble to defend every accusation; you can rest in the One who brings hidden things to light. Let your peace and honesty be the open book that points beyond you to Jesus.

Matthew 10:26–27 — Set aside fear of your accusers; what is concealed now will be uncovered. What I share with you in quiet places, declare in the brightness of day; what reaches your ear in a whisper, let your voice carry.

Reflection: If a misunderstanding about you surfaces this week, what practical step—inviting a clarifying conversation, choosing silence, or seeking wise counsel—will help you keep a clear conscience before God?
