Magic and the Search for Truth

In this week's message, Mark Sayers explores the story of Simon the Sorcerer in Acts 8 to reveal a deeper warning for our moment: when spiritual hunger is high but surrender is low. As our culture searches for power, shortcuts, and techniques, what happens when faith is reduced to just another tool for self-gain?

Mark traces the return of magic, the rise of spiritual curiosity, and the danger of maximising everything—even our faith. But there’s another way. Like the Magi who bowed before Jesus, we’re invited not to control the Spirit, but to kneel in awe before the One who gives it.

This is a message for a culture chasing wonder—and a Church called to welcome the seekers home.
