Pastor Aaron walks us through the first part of Paul's journey from Caesarea to his shipwreck on Malta. It is a wonderful lesson on not listening to wise counsel as well as God's grace even when we do not listen to Him.

Pastor Aaron wraps up Acts chapter 26 with Paul's testimony in front of Festus and King Agrippa. Paul shares his own story as well as the Gospel and then invites King Agrippa, Festus and all his attendants to follow the risen Christ.

Pastor Aaron starts Acts 26 where we look at the testimony Paul gives to Festus and to King Herod Agrippa on why the Jewish leaders of the day wish to put Paul on trial and kill him.

After a couple weeks off, Pastor Aaron continues with our study of Acts. We go over the tribunal of Paul by Festus, learning of the charges the Jewish leaders brought against Paul. We see Paul appeal directly to Ceasar, which Festus grants. This begins Pauls journey to Rome where he will spend the rest of his life.

Pastor Aaron explains the first Roman trial that Paul goes through at the Praetorium in Cesaria Phillipi. We see how Paul explains how he has not forgotten the Law or the Prophets, but has seen the Law and the Prophets fulfilled through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Jewish leaders showed they were religious, but did not have faith. Paul showed how he has faith because of his reli...

Pastor Aaron walks us through the plot against Paul, by the Jews, to kill him. We see God's provision to keep Paul safe so he can continue to preach the Gospel to the Gentiles throughout the Roman world. God was not done with Paul and He is not done with us.

Pastor Aaron walks us through the beginning of Paul's imprisonment by the Roman government. Paul continues to share the gospel of Christ with the Jewish elite of the day. He challenges us to share Christ with our world today, despite the physical consequences. God is not done with us yet. He's still with us even if we don't realize it.

Pastor Aaron walks us through the beginning of the speech Paul gave to the mob at the Temple in Jerusalem. He challenges us to think about how we are comfortable in our lives and how we need to move outside of that comfort zone into where God is calling us.

Pastor Aaron goes through the 2nd half of Acts 21, detailing the return of Paul to Jerusalem, Paul's Nazarite ritual and Paul's eventual attack by a mob in the Temple courts. We learn that you can be in church a life time and not know Jesus. You can be religious without having a relationship with Christ. Christ is enough for us and is the ONLY way to God.

Pastor Aaron walks us through the first 16 verses of Acts 21. This begins Paul's journey to Jerusalem for Passover. We see several places where Paul hears God speaking through fellow Christians that he will be arrested for sharing the Gospel in Jerusalem. We need to be willing to share the Gospel when God tells us to, and to not wait. We may not have tomorrow to do so.

Pastor Aaron rejoices with us in celebrating the resurrection of Christ. We walk through Mary Magdalene discovering the empty tomb and telling Peter and John in John 20:1-12.

Pastor Aaron walks us through Matthew 21: 1-11 which talks about Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem during the Passover feast.

In part 2 of Acts 20, Pastor Aaron asks us if we are ready to run the race God sets before us no matter the trials or persecutions that may come. We must do as God commands because He knows what is best for us and what will bring glory to Him and His kingdom. As good as it is to be ready for the race set before us, we must also be willing to finish the race.

We look at Paul's miraculous healing of the young boy, Eutychus, while he preached late into the night to the believers at Troas in Macedonia. Paul had faith in Jesus and believed scripture to be true. We must do the same in our own lives. Are we willing to put ourselves out there because we believe scripture is true and believe in the power of what God has done in our lives?

Pastor Aaron walks us through Acts 19:11-41. He shows us how Paul and his companions impacted the city of Ephesus by sharing the Gospel. We can be set free from our demons and sin. But we also have the responsibility to share the Gospel with everyone. Are we willing to share Jesus with people without our personal bias?

Guest speaker Pete Price walks us through Luke 4:16-19 which is the passage where Jesus explains to us His mission here on earth. To bring good news to the poor, freedom for the prisoners, sight to the blind, freedom for the oppressed and to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.

Our youth pastor, Corben Overton, shows us real practical steps to use in our daily lives on how we can hear God in our every day interactions.

Pastor Aaron walks us through the final verses of Acts 18 which begins Paul's 3rd missionary journey. We learn about Apollos and his zeal in sharing the gospel with everyone.

Pastor Aaron leads us through the last part of Acts 18, which ends Paul's second missionary journey. We continue to learn how necessary it is to preach the good news of the Gospel to everyone. Who are we talking to about Jesus? Are you a part of a community of believers? How can we show Jesus to others through our lives?

Pastor Aaron leads us through the first 11 verses of Acts 18 and shows us how we need to constantly be sharing the good news of the Gospel with everyone we meet.

Join us as we apply the second half of Acts 17 where we learn to inspect our lives for idols that turn our attention away from Jesus.

Pastor Aaron walks us through the first part of Acts 17:1-15 and how scripture encourages us to be in God's Word daily and compare our daily lives with how He wants us to live and act.
