Church Is Messy: Acts of Leadership - Move Toward the Messes part 1
Update: 2025-10-22
Description
This week Rick and Svea look at Acts 10 and the story of Cornelius.
Topics discussed in this episode:
- 00:00 Intro
- 06:11 Three questions about leadership: whom am I looking to for leadership, how am I leading myself, who looks to me for leadership.
- 07:31 Cornelius in Acts 10. He was a complex character, we're all complex characters.
- 10:12 We're never correct to reduce any person to one defining thing; it tends to bring out one of four bad responses. We're all multifaceted.
- 13:08 In this passage we get to see how God saw Cornelius.
- 15:52 A thought experiment.
- 20:12 Good isn't bad; good is good. It's just not good enough to close the gap between us and God.
- 23:16 The gap Cornelius had and his angelic visitors. God's methods are intentionally messy and inefficient.
- 28:14 In this chapter we've seen Cornelius as a leader of people, show self-leadership, and now he looks to Peter for leadership.
- 34:11 We need to trust Jesus enough to deconstruct our self-imposed rules so that he can rule. It's all about heart orientation.
