What does its presence in Acts 10:34-11:30 signify? In this episode, Emma Dotter explores how speaking in tongues was purposeful in the book of Acts. Tongues signified the spread of the gospel beyond the Jewish people to the Gentiles. She also discusses the difference between descriptive and prescriptive texts in Scripture and provides insight into applying these passages today. \n\n// RELATED JOIN THE JOURNEY EPISODES:  \nS4:267 Acts 9-11 (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s4-267-acts-9-11/id1600151923?i=1000735699050) \n\n// WHAT IS JOIN THE JOURNEY? \n\nJoin The Journey is a realistic daily Bible reading plan that helps followers of Jesus at Watermark Community Church and beyond enjoy abiding in Jesus together. Join The Journey Jr. is designed to help parents guide their kids in Bible reading through interactive and age-specific lessons. In 2026, we’re studying the book of Acts—one passage per week. For another year, teaching on Sunday will align with each week’s passage. Then, for the next six days, we’ll return to the same passage with fresh focus, exploring insights about who God is and how we can enjoy him more deeply. Monday through Saturday, we’ll approach the same passage from a different perspective each day—whether observation, interpretation, prayer, or another spiritual practice—to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for God’s Word. Then, watch or listen to the video podcast to tackle the week's toughest verses and discover key historical, theological, and practical insights. \n\nDaily Bible lessons for adults: https://jointhejourney.com\nDaily Bible lessons for parents and families: https://jointhejourney.com/jr\nWeekly Bible podcast for kids: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...  \n\n// MORE RESOURCES FROM JOIN THE JOURNEY:  \n\nDigital Bible study resources: https://jointhejourney.com/resources\nPrevious years’ print curriculum: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Waterma......","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/g8x-nKo1hHoOC64414t8HN0w6lYNHLbeV0qRxaVtU3o/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI2ODA1LzE2ODky/ODI1MDMtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
