“Then he said, ‘The God of our ancestors has handpicked you to be briefed on his plan of action. You’ve actually seen the Righteous Innocent and heard him speak. You are to be a key witness to everyone you meet of what you’ve seen and heard. So what are you waiting for? Get up and get yourself baptized, scrubbed clean of those sins and personally acquainted with God.’ “Well, it happened just as Ananias said. After I was back in Jerusalem and praying one day in the Temple, lost in the presence of God, I saw him, saw God’s Righteous Innocent, and heard him say to me, ‘Hurry up! Get out of here as quickly as you can. None of the Jews here in Jerusalem are going to accept what you say about me.’ “At first I objected: ‘Who has better credentials? They all know how obsessed I was with hunting out those who believed in you, beating them up in the meeting places and throwing them in jail. And when your witness Stephen was murdered, I was right there, holding the coats of the murderers and cheering them on. And now they see me totally converted. What better qualification could I have?’ “But he said, ‘Don’t argue. Go. I’m sending you on a long journey to outsider non-Jews.’”

Zach Williams’ song, “Rescue Story” is about how Jesus lifts us up from the ashes. Every time we run away from Him, He is louder than our shame. Jesus is patient with us - He’s been preparing us for our rescue since before birth. Join me in this reading plan to reflect on our rescue stories, inspired by Zach Williams’ music. –Ted Barrett, Minister and Umpire for Major League Baseball

Your testimony is a powerful tool we should all be able to share with others. Even if you have never shared your story, this Bible reading plan can help you to discover the why, the how, and the who of sharing your testimony. Whether you are a new follower of Jesus or have walked with Jesus for a long time, you have a story. Go and tell your story.
You are about to enter a journey of experiencing revival through the principle of God’s altar—not only an ancient concept but a necessary part of worship today. This altar is where you present worship and praise. It is a place of anointing, which breaks the yoke of the enemy. It is a place of overcoming and daily communion. Rebuild your altar—and let the fire of God fall!
