Podcasts about Acts 1

Pastor Marco frames Acts 1 as the necessary “what's next” after the resurrection: Jesus ascends, but His mission continues through a new body on earth—the church—by the power of the Holy Spirit. He emphasizes that Luke–Acts is one continuous account designed to connect later believers to the first generation, and he traces the Holy Spirit's role from Jesus' conception, baptism, temptation, ministry, death, and resurrection, to the church's commissioning. The core thrust is that Acts is not merely history; it is an invitation into an ongoing, dynamic relationship where resurrection power is experienced in holiness, boldness, gospel proclamation, and love for the lost—God's power working through human obedience.He then presses application: the Spirit is not only “in” believers but also comes “upon” them—an ongoing, renewing empowerment rather than a one-time event or a rigid “second blessing.” He links the timing of Pentecost to God's appointed feasts, portraying it as the moment the Word and Spirit converge for the church's witness, and stresses that believers are to wait, pray, fellowship, and move together in unity. The goal is not speculation about times and seasons but faithful action: to be Christ's witnesses outward from “Jerusalem” to the ends of the earth, resisting sin and division, and seeking fresh filling—“wind and fire,” boldness and holiness—so the church can carry the Great Commission in step with the Spirit and anchored in the Word.

In part 7 of Missio Dei, we look to a few New Testament texts to see how God empowers His people to advance His Kingdom in the world. Listen as Pastor Rob Bentz shares our latest sermon, Missional God, Missional Church, as he explains how the Church continues Jesus' work by making disciples and sharing the Gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit.

The book of Acts is an account of the beginnings of God's church written down by Luke; yes, the same Luke who wrote the gospel of Luke. In the first chapter, Jesus promises his disciples that they will be baptized in the Holy Spirit and then he ascends into the heavens where he can no longer be seen. The apostles and other disciples including the women who had followed Jesus spend the following days in prayer. Since Judas Iscariot had betrayed Jesus and died, they elect a new 12th apostle to fill the vacancy. When they have two finalists to choose between, they pray, then cast lots, asking the Lord show them who should be chosen. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

The More and Better podcast at Faithco Church aims to provide a deeper understanding of the Sunday sermons and practical guidance for discipleship through the Word of God. The first episode delves into the book of Acts and the theology of the New Testament church, emphasizing the importance of diving deeper into the sermons. The conversation delves into the concept of religion, the practice of faith, and the challenge of discipleship. It emphasizes the importance of being a witness for Christ and the power of personal testimony. The proximity of the gospel and the need to start where you are is also highlighted.TakeawaysDiscipleship through the Word of GodUnderstanding the theology of the New Testament church Religion is about practicing faith, not legalismBeing a witness for Christ is about sharing your personal testimonyThe gospel should be shared starting from where you areChapters00:00 Introduction to More and Better Podcast10:01 Understanding the Author of Luke and Acts17:37 The Time of the Gentiles and the Church Age39:30 The Proximity of the Gospel

The book of Acts is an account of the beginnings of God's church written down by Luke; yes, the same Luke who wrote the gospel of Luke. Christianity has always been marked by life together with other believers. Here in these opening chapters we see how the church began, how it spread throughout God's people, and continued on to redeem those who were outside God's covenant with Israel. The signs and wonders performed by the apostles proved to the world that although the followers of Jesus were ordinary men, their message was by no means an ordinary teaching.Acts 1 – 1:13 . Acts 2 – 5:51 . Acts 3 – 14:11 . Acts 4 – 18:39 . Proverbs 9 – 25:22 . :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

The Lord ReignsActs 1:9-26Teacher: Pastor Tommy BaileyDate: February 8, 2026The Ascension is perhaps among the least considered aspects of the work of Jesus, yet it is a decisive turning point in the history of God's redemptive work. In Acts 1:9–26, Jesus is exalted above all rule and authority as the Lord of all. His Ascension is not his absence, but the moment that sets the table for the outpouring of his Spirit upon all who call on His name.Join Pastor Tommy as we consider why the Ascension matters, how it reshapes the life of the Church, and the sure hope it gives us as we place our trust in the Lord who reigns now and will one day return.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

By revisiting the story of the early Church, we're rediscovering the mission that started it all. As we look back at the birth of the Church, we'll see how the Spirit sent ordinary believers to change the world—and how that same call still shapes us today.

We complete our discussion following Jesus' ascension through picking of Matthias to take Judas Iscariot's place.

What's our place in God's plan?

Pastor Derek explores the 2 Ascensions of Christ. First He ascended on the morning of His resurrection after appearing to Mary Magdalene (John 20:17), and again 40 days later, as described in Acts 1, after which He sat down at God's right hand. The 4 Purposes for His 1st Ascension: *1. To fulfil the Feast of First Fruits on the day of His resurrection (1Corinthians 15:20-23). *2. To present His BLOOD in the heavenly holy of holies, to establish the New Covenant (Hebrews 9:12). *3. To receive ALL AUTHORITY (Matthew 28:18, Daniel 7:13-14, Philippians 2:9-11): *4. To receive the SPIRIT on our behalf, to give to His people (Acts 2:33). That is why He could impart the Spirit to His apostles later on the same day He rose again (John 20:22).

We continue our series in Acts by looking at Judas being replaced as an Apostle and how his burial in the potter's field reminds us of a different Potter's field.For more information visit ChristCommunity.Life

When Jesus is healing and teaching in the Gospel of Matthew, we hear of his looking upon the crowds with compassion and calling upon his disciples to pray for God the Father to raise up laborers to go into this harvest of people who need the Good Shepherd. This passage is part of our readings for World Mission Sunday and reminds us that as we pray for laborers, the Lord can call us into the very work we are praying for.Image: Sent to Sheep without a Shepherd, picture by Lawrence OP, CC BY-NC-ND 2.0, no changes made.

Brian McIntyre preaches part two of a message from Acts chapter 1 : covering verses 4 through 11 titled "What Calling Is It Anyway?".

20 Proverbs 23; 07 Judges 14-19; 19 Psalms 52-56; 43 John 21; 44 Acts 1-3

The health of the church is dependent on the biblical qualifications, focus, and example of its leaders. Pastor Micah preaches at King's Cross Church.

What did Jesus really mean when He said, “Go and make disciples”? In this message, we look at Matthew 28 and Acts 1:8 to discover that disciple-making isn't a program, a personality type, or something reserved for pastors and missionaries. It's part of our identity as followers of Jesus. We are called to be witnesses—ordinary people who share what God has done in us. This message breaks down how disciple-making starts right where you already live: your home, your workplace, your neighborhood, and your relationships. You don't need all the answers. You don't need a platform. You just need a story and the power of the Holy Spirit. The question isn't whether you're part of the mission. The question is: who is your one? --Connect With Us-- Need prayer, want to sign up for baptism or surrender your life to Christ? Follow this link : https://bit.ly/m/lifechurchia

On Your Marks, Get Set, Wait!Acts 1:1-8Pastor Jim ThomasJanuary 18, 2026Before the church moved forward, Jesus told them to stop. Before the mission began, He commanded them to wait.The book of Acts opens not with strategy, speed, or self-confidence—but with a risen Lord who insists that His people do nothing until they are clothed with power from on high.Join Pastor Jim for an introduction to the book of the Acts of the Apostles and the opening eight verses as he explores why waiting does not have to be wasted time; why the Spirit—not human effort—is the engine of the mission, and how God still moves His people onto mission with the presence and in the power of the Holy Spirit.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.
