22.06.29 “Samaritan joy!” (Acts 8:1-8)

 

Probably most of us have moved from one place to another, perhaps several times in our lifetimes, right? Do you remember those emotions? The sadness of leaving all that is familiar and the anxiety of moving to a new place where everything is unfamiliar. Suddenly you felt lost, perhaps even like a child needing help with almost everything. Most people move after much thought and planning. However, in recent years we've seen a migration of millions of people all around the world that is staggering. Most recently it's been Ukrainian people forced from their homes by bombs and bullets, fleeing to neighboring EU countries and South American's fleeing corrupt governments and drug cartels. In recent years past it was Syrians fleeing the bombs and North African's fleeing extreme poverty and famine.   It's not difficult for us to visualize the panic-stricken people fleeing Jerusalem 2000 year ago, as described in Acts 8.
