Description

Psalm 104; Mark 4.26-29; Acts 8.26-40

This is a pivotal moment for the church, comparable with the story of Cornelius the centurion. The Holy Spirit takes the Gospel out of Judea altogether, for Philip to interpret scripture, instruct about salvation and baptise a Black man, a eunuch of ambiguous sexuality. If you ever wondered what happened to him, he may be one of the first Black leaders of the church: Simeon the Black, a teacher of the church at Antioch. (Acts 13.1)
