Moore in the Word

In this episode, from a chapel service held on Monday 16 February 2026, Mark Thompson, Principal at Moore Theological College, speaks on Acts 1:1-14 and Jesus’ time with his disciples after his resurrection around his ascension.
He reminds us that Jesus’ work didn’t cease at his resurrection; he is still at work, reigning today. Furthermore, there will come a day when he will return in a way that’s undeniable, visible and compelling, and then, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that he is Lord.
