Episodes

Acts 14 Discussion 04.02.2026

Send us Fan Mail A man is stoned, left for dead, and then gets up to walk to the next city to preach. That’s not legend—that’s Acts 14. We take you into the dust of Iconium and Lystra, where a single healing flips a city from adoration to assault and reveals how fragile public praise can be when truth collides with power. We walk through the chapter’s stark turns: a lame man stands on healed legs,...

Acts 13 Reading 03.02.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads Acts 13. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Acts 13 Discussion 03.02.2026

Send us Fan Mail A blinding confrontation, a city stirred, and a sermon that threads centuries of promise into a single moment—Acts 13 hits like a drumbeat you feel in your chest. We open in Antioch where worship, fasting, and prayer lead to a clear calling: the Holy Spirit sets apart Barnabas and Saul. That shift from casting lots to listening to the Spirit reframes how we think about direction,...

Acts 12 Reading 02.02.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads Acts 12. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Acts 12 Discussion 02.02.2026

Send us Fan Mail A king courts applause, an apostle sleeps in chains, and a prayer meeting forgets to open the door. Acts 12 is a study in contrasts—human power trying to control outcomes, and God quietly overturning them at midnight. We walk through James’s martyrdom, Peter’s arrest under heavy guard, and the astonishing moment when an iron gate swings open on its own. The scene outside Mary’s ho...

Acts 11 Reading 30.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Holland reads Acts 11. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Acts 11 Discussion 30.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail A heated question opens the door to a wider church: why did Peter eat with Gentiles? We walk through Acts 11 as Peter offers a careful, story-driven defense that doesn’t demand authority but invites understanding. The room falls quiet, then erupts in praise as the church recognizes a simple, seismic truth: God grants repentance that leads to life to the Gentiles. That moment resha...

Acts 10 Reading 29.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads Acts 10. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Acts 10 Discussion 29.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail What if the boundary you’ve always trusted isn’t God’s boundary at all? We dive into Acts 10, where a Roman centurion’s sincere prayers meet an apostle’s uncomfortable vision and the Holy Spirit tears down a wall between Jew and Gentile. Cornelius is generous, devout, and still missing the full story; Peter is faithful, bold, and still learning what clean and unclean mean in a new...

Acts 9 Discussion 28.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail A zealot rides out to crush a movement and comes back preaching the name he tried to erase. We walk through Acts 9 and watch Saul collide with the risen Jesus, lose his sight, and gain a new life that reshapes the church’s future. Along the way, we linger on the line that changes everything: “Why are you persecuting me?” If Jesus identifies this closely with his people, then the w...

Acts 8 Discussion 27.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail What if the very crisis you fear is the spark your calling needs? We walk through Acts 8 with fresh eyes, tracing how persecution pushes the church beyond Jerusalem into Samaria and onto a desert road where one unlikely seeker meets the living Christ. Along the way, we wrestle with Simon’s attempt to buy spiritual power, Peter’s piercing diagnosis of a bitter heart, and the soberi...

Acts 7 Discussion 26.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail A courtroom turns into a mirror when Stephen answers the council’s challenge with a sweeping story from Abraham to the temple. We walk through Acts 7 step by step, tracing how God keeps promises across centuries while people drift toward idols, cling to traditions, and resist the very rescue they pray for. The thread tightens around Moses—misunderstood at forty, resisted at eighty...

Acts 6 Reading 23.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Holland reads Acts 6. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Acts 6 Discussion 23.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Problems aren’t proof that a church is failing; they’re signals that the body needs to grow stronger. We step into Acts 6 where a real breakdown—widows neglected in the daily distribution—forces a choice: either stretch leaders thin or build a better structure. We choose the second path and unpack why the apostles protected prayer and teaching while asking the community to appoint...

Acts 5 Reading 22.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads Acts 5. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Acts 5 Discussion 22.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Holiness and power collide in Acts 5, where a hidden lie shatters a public image and a battered church sings with joy. We unpack the stark story of Ananias and Sapphira, why their deception threatened the integrity of a young movement, and how God’s holiness isn’t a slogan but a safeguard for real community. From there, we follow the surge of signs and wonders at Solomon’s Portico...

Acts 4 Reading 21.01.2026

Acts 4 Discussion 21.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail When power bristles and truth refuses to shrink, the room starts to shake—sometimes literally. We unpack Acts 4 with fresh eyes, tracing how Peter and John faced arrest, spoke with plain courage, and sparked a wave of unity that erased need across the young church. From a healed man standing as living evidence to a council paralyzed by weak leadership, this chapter reveals why pro...

Acts 3 Reading 20.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Holland reads Acts 3. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Acts 3 Discussion 20.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail A man asks for spare change at the temple gate and walks away leaping. We dive into Acts 3 to unpack why that moment matters—not just as a headline miracle but as a hinge that swings open a message of repentance, forgiveness, and real refreshment. As Peter redirects the crowd’s awe from human hands to the risen Jesus, we trace how signs validate the gospel and how the gospel refra...

Acts 2 Reading 19.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Pastor Plek reads Acts 2. Text us at 737-231-0605 with any questions.

Acts 2 Discussion 19.01.2026

Send us Fan Mail Rushing wind. Tongues like fire. A fisherman who once folded under pressure now preaches with a steady voice that cuts straight to the heart. We walk through Acts 2 with clear eyes, tracing how the Spirit turns a scattered crowd into a devoted community and why Peter’s words still ring with power. This isn’t hype; it’s a blueprint for a living church—rooted in Scripture, wide open...
