In his sermon on Acts 3:1-10, Pastor David Watson examines how life-changing events not only alter our actions but also give us a platform for proclamation. Through the story of Peter and John healing the lame beggar at the temple's Beautiful Gate, Watson illustrates how followers of Jesus are transformed into witnesses. While thousands walked past this beggar daily, Peter and John saw him through Jesus' eyes and offered him something greater than silver or gold—healing in Jesus' name.

Watson identifies three hurdles that prevent us from helping others experience Jesus: we can't see what we aren't looking for, we can't give what we don't have, and we won't participate in what we're not propelled by. Just as the four friends in Mark 2 tore through a roof to bring their paralyzed friend to Jesus, we too should be willing to do whatever it takes to bring others into Jesus' presence because "Jesus has changed my life and He so desperately wants to change yours."
