In this powerful and pivotal episode of the AL Pastor Podcast, Pastor Brian is joined by Noah for a deep dive into Acts 10 and 11—a turning point in the story of the early Church. Together, they walk through Peter’s rooftop vision, the surprising inclusion of a Roman centurion named Cornelius, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on Gentiles for the very first time. What unfolds is not just a lesson in ancient history—it’s a call to embrace God’s heart for all people.
Through rich storytelling, real-time discussion, and detailed verse-by-verse teaching, Pastor Brian helps listeners grasp the weight of Peter’s transformation and the radical scope of the Gospel. With echoes of Noah’s ark, the Tower of Babel, and Pentecost, this moment marks the fulfillment of God’s promise to redeem all nations—not just Israel—through Jesus Christ.
As the Holy Spirit falls, as Peter opens his mouth, and as Gentile voices magnify God in unknown tongues, the Church witnesses a miracle of grace that still reverberates today: God shows no partiality. Those once deemed "unclean" are now called chosen. The barriers are breaking. The Gospel is moving out.
Whether you're a seasoned Bible reader or just beginning your faith journey, this episode will leave you inspired, challenged, and in awe of the God who includes, redeems, and transforms.
