Get Steppin'

(Acts 8:26-40) - Paths cross, creating another life changing moment. A desert road didn't stop the good news from being shared. What opportunities has God brought us to? Will I be ready to help someone begin their steps to follow Christ?

(Acts 8:1-25) - New territory is ventured as the believers are scattered. They will break social norms and cross cultural boundaries. The apostles see through a counterfeit Christian and challenge motives to the core. Who am I magnifying? The believers continue to promote Christ instead of themselves.

(Acts 6&7) - What am I willing to die for? Stephen didn't just wait tables, he stood for something much deeper. When cancel culture closed in, he never pleaded his innocence. He only points to the truth to find common ground. Will I stand up or back down when facing persecution? Will I lash out to defend myself or calmly stand firm in the truth?

Faith through the unexpected can be a real challenge, but as I follow Jesus' steps I learn that He can be trusted. What steps will I take when I'm clearly not in control? God often uses my darkest hours for my deepest growth.

(Acts 5:17-42) - Once again, the apostles meet opposition. After a midnight jailbreak, they're back to preaching the truth. With jealousy, fear and frustration in their hearts, the Pharisees plan how to silence them, but realize they could be opposing God. What struggle can I share with others as I faithfully take my next step?

(Acts 5:1-16) - What I give isn't as important as where my heart is when I give it. God wants my whole heart. It's crucial that I'm aware of Satan's schemes. He will try to slither into my heart. What strategy is he using on me now? How will I respond to his attacks?

(Acts 4) - Opposition often meets those who speak the truth. Why I'm opposed will point to the step I need to take. Peter and John are locked up for speaking up, but they respond with more faithfulness and pointing to the power of God. The church prays, shares and grows! How will I respond? 

Nate's grandmother joins the show to share what she has learned about faith that lasts a lifetime. How can we remain faithful when life is hard? 

(Acts 3) - A beggar locks eyes with men who walked with Jesus and his life is transformed! The external problems were solved when the spiritual needs were met. What expectations do I have when asking God for help? How is He answering me? Who has God sent me to lock eyes with and speak truth to?

(Acts 2:42-47) - Community isn't always something you can put your finger on, but it can be felt. After Peter's sermon, the believers respond in many ways. What can I learn from the Act 2 Church? How can I become an Acts 2 Disciple? God uses individuals to do be things!

(Acts 2:14-41) - Some sermons move us emotionally, but others will push us to make a decision. Peter brings everyone to a tee in the road. What I really believe will be revealed by my response to the message of Christ. Is my heart soft enough to receive what God is telling me? What part does humility play as I follow Christ's steps?

Join the guys as they discuss family, ministry and personal growth through the years. What can we learn from others who have served and continue to serve? What does it take to persevere through the most difficult circumstances?

(Acts 2:1-13) Things are about to change for good! When God's people come together under the right motives, God does something that's never been seen before. What does my time with others lead to; more confusion or unexplainable power? God takes an already united group and makes it even easier to His will.

(Acts 1:12-26) In times of turmoil, Satan pushes to divide the faithful. Believing in each other, relying on prayer and following God's lead gives the disciples the strength to carry on. On the heals of losing Judas, God chooses another to fill the gap.

(Acts 1:1-11) The Holy Spirit hits different! Without God's power, we can't accomplish much. When we trust His lead there's greater power in His purpose. We may have different gifts, but we are all called to be His witness to the world.

Join the guys as they discuss the journey they've been on this past year. Where is God taking them and what can we expect in this new year?

The birth of a child changes everything! When Jesus shows up, the world was flipped upside down. God gives us hope with the birth of His son! What response do I have to the presence of Jesus? 

Following Jesus isn't convenient or comfortable. Walking with Him is more like a rugged hike! How far will I go to follow Jesus? What is this journey with my creator costing me?

Our quick reaction to disappointment says a lot about our character. Joseph finds himself in a storm, but remains faithful. His mind could have ran, but his feet never moved. How can we stand faithfully like Joseph when we face rough waters?

What is God calling you to? Mary was always ready for His call when the time came. What calling am I preparing for? When God calls me, what will my response be? He doesn't need me, He invites me to share in His glory.

God will always out give us. How has God blessed you in a way that left you speechless? When has God blown your mind? Sometimes we have to sit back and just thank God for the numerous blessings He's given.

We've all got them, but not many of us thank God for our weaknesses. Admitting and accepting that we need God starts with humbly owning where we come up short. Acknowledging His strength in our weaknesses is the most powerful testimony. 

Nate sits down with his Dad following a Men's Retreat Weekend. Join us as we learn about Tim's childhood influences and beginnings of ministry. What can men do to raise soldiers at home who aim to please their commanding officer, Christ?

No pain, no gain! Our hardest, most painful moments are often what shape is the most! What has God used to draw you closer and mature you in the process? Pain is the best teacher! What has God taught you through your pain?

Real gratitude can't be faked. When we've experienced the unconditional love God offers, our gratitude will overflow into every facet of our lives. When is it most difficult for you to harness gratitude? Tap into God's grace and you'll find gratitude everywhere! 📖 Ps50, Matt18:21-35, Rom8:26, 2Cor12:9, Rom12:2 🎵 “Gratitude” by Brandon Lake
