Acts 2:42-47  presents a captivating snapshot of the vibrant and devoted community that emerged in the early Church. It outlines key principles that guided their lives and encouraged their spiritual development.

In Acts 2:37-41, we see the power of God's Word and the transformative effect it has on people. When the people in Jerusalem heard the Gospel message preached by Peter, they were deeply convicted of their sin and their role in crucifying Jesus. This conviction was the work of the Holy Spirit, convicting them of their need for a Savior. The people's response to the Gospel message was to cry...

During the day of Pentecost, Peter stood up and spoke to the crowd, providing an explanation of the remarkable events taking place before them. He proceeded to declare Jesus as the awaited Messiah, highlighting His miracles, death, and resurrection. Peter's sermon is considered one of the greatest sermons ever preached.

In Acts 2:1-13 , Luke describes the remarkable events that took place on the Day of Pentecost. 120 believers had gathered together in one place when, suddenly, the Holy Spirit came upon them. This momentous event was marked by three supernatural signs that Luke highlights: something was heard, something was seen, and something was said. The disciples heard a sound like a rushing wind, and they saw...

Waiting on the Lord is not passive or idle, but an active and intentional choice to trust in God's faithfulness and sovereignty. It involves seeking God's guidance, studying God's Word, praying for wisdom and discernment, and being willing to obey His will even when it is difficult or goes against our own desires. Ultimately, waiting on the Lord is an expression of faith, recognizing t...

Acts 1:8 serves as a table of contents for the entire Book of Acts Chapters 1-7 are the church's witness in Jerusalem Chapters 8-11 are the church's witness in Judea & Samaria Chapters 12-28 are the church's witness to the ends of the earth

The Book of Acts is the second volume of a two-volume set written by Luke. Acts is not simply the history of the early church, it is the history of the mission of the early Church. The Book of Acts tracks the spread of early Christianity, outlines the church's growth in the 30 years after Jesus' death & resurrection, and records the work of the Holy Spirit through the birth, infancy, a...

HE IS RISEN!  Those three words change everything. In 1 Corinthians 15, Paul begins by reminding his brothers of the “gospel I preached to you . . . by which you are being saved” (15:2). This gospel, Paul says, revolves around the death of Christ, who “died for our sins in accordance with the Scripture” (15:3). But notice, Paul does not end there. Christ did not remain dead, but he was also “raise...

EVERYONE DWELLS IN A STORY.  To dwell in a story is to live in it. And the story you choose to live in directs every aspect of your life. It also answers lifes most profound questions: Who am I?

These stories...

There are 5 MAJOR EVENTS in the Old Testament & 5 MAJOR EVENTS in the New Testament … and those events are a MIRROR IMAGE of each other. They come together at the  TURNING POINT  of Scripture, which is the person and work of Jesus Christ, with the Old Testament  ascending  to Jesus & the New Testament  descending  from Jesus.

What will heaven be like? How will we spend eternity? In this message, we will explore the end of the book of Revelation to discover what the New Heaven and New Earth will be like.

Opinions about the church vary widely, but the key question we need to ask is this: What did Jesus have in mind when he said, “I will build my church”? (Matt. 16:18). If this is his church, then we want to know what his purpose was in building it.

The four Gospels tell the same story, but with different emphases. The central message of each is the identity and ministry of Jesus Christ. In the Gospels, we discover that Jesus Christ is the long-awaited, once-for-all fulfillment of God’s promise to redeem His fallen world. Justification, propitiation, and redemption — all benefits of Christ’s death — have one great purpose: reconciliation...

Beginning in the book of Joshua, God provides Isreal with the promised land. He allows them to establish a king to govern them in the land. And sends prophets to call them back to their covenant promises. Throughout the Old Testament story, we are reminded again and again that God always keeps His promises … even when we don’t keep up our end of the bargain...

God created us for intimate fellowship with Him, peaceful relationships with each other, and a purposeful existence in a paradise God created for us. But in Genesis 3, tragedy strikes. It is an event simply referred to as the Fall. The man and the woman, Adam and Eve, were tempted, they succumbed to the temptation, and the results were disastrous. The events of Genesis 3 radically altered hum...
