Vision
All of the Bible in all of life.
Core Values
We worship God | We study the Word
We love people | We depend on prayer
Purpose
We desire to increase the number and maturity level of followers of Jesus Christ, first by
sharing with them the good news about Jesus, second by enfolding them into a fellowship
of believers, and finally by teaching them how the Bible, God’s Word, applies to all of life.
About Us
We are affiliated with the Orthodox Presbyterian Church which has been planting churches
and preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ since its inception in 1936. We believe God's
infallible and life-changing Word and the historic Christian faith as summarized in the
Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms.

COVID-19 Updates
While we have had to make the decision to suspend all gatherings at New Hope of
10 or more people, in accordance with Governor Evers’ direction, we want to en-
courage you that the Lord is using this difficult and ground-shifting time of upheaval
for His own good purpose and will. Although it might look a little different, we are
still able to grow in grace! We will do our best to give you updates via email and our
website - www.nhopc.org/coronavirus-updates.

Because we will not be able to physically receive your prayer requests in the com-
ing weeks, please send any prayer requests via email to [email protected] by Sun-
day evening. As usual, if you would like your request to stay confidential please
indicate that in your email. We will plan to send out our Prayer Chain email on Mon-
day morning.

Acts 23:12-35 Conspiracy Theory April 26, 2020 INTRODUCTION: Acts is the work of God’s Holy Spirit in the lives and ministries of the disciples. Last week we saw God’s grace at work in Paul before Sanhedrin: the grace of a cleared conscience, a heavenly hope, and Christ’s call. Today, in the 3 stages of the narrative, we’ll see God’s grace at work in Paul in waiting, in the tremendous contrast between men’s plans and the sovereign Providence of God. STAGE 1: THE CONSPIRACY (.12-15)
A. “The Jews formed a conspiracy… to kill him”
1. Enemy: s____________ God 2. Believer: p____________ 3. Holy Spirit: i____________
B. Pt: God can be trusted in His s____________
STAGE 2: THE DISCOVERY (.16-22)
A. “The son of Paul’s sister heard of this plot”
1. Enemy: p____________ 2. Believer: c____________/c____________ 3. Holy Spirit: d____________
B. Pt: God can be trusted in His c____________ STAGE 3: THE THWARTING (.23-35)
A. “Provide… for Paul… taken safely to Governor”
1. Enemy: f____________ / m____________ 2. Believer: i____________ 3. Holy Spirit: p____________
B. Pt: God can be trusted in His s____________ CONCLUSION: IN GOD WE TRUST
A. Q1: How s____________ is your God? B. Q2: How g____________ is your God? C. Q3: How t____________ is your God? D. Q4: How f____________ is your God?
