This sermon walks through Acts 8:26-40 and the story of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch, showing that the mission of Jesus is truly unstoppable because the Holy Spirit is always leading His people toward those He is already preparing. Tim highlights how Philip obeyed when God called him away from a fruitful ministry in Samaria and onto a hidden, inconvenient desert road, reminding us that God’s mission is not measured by crowd size but by faithfulness to follow His voice. The Ethiopian man was searching, hungry, and reading Isaiah 53, and Philip simply came alongside him as a “spiritual tour guide,” pointing him to the good news of Jesus. The sermon challenges us to listen for the Spirit, pay attention to the people God has placed in our lives, ask “Who is my one?”, and take next steps of obedience, including baptism. In the end, the Ethiopian goes on his way rejoicing, Philip continues preaching, and the Gospel keeps moving because God is still drawing people to Jesus through ordinary believers who are willing to follow Him down the desert road.
