Series: The Book of Acts: The Unstoppable GospelPassage Focus: Acts 11:19-38Pastor Michael Heath

Part 2 of our Reach sermon series examines, once again, Acts 11. That's where we are confronted with a challenge to move beyond self-preservation, and step into authentic Christ-centered living. That's what God's people did in the first century and it literally changed the world! To learn how their actions can still inspire us today listen as Pastor Rob Bentz shares the latest message in our series, A Church that Reaches Beyond the Walls.

Sunday Sermon from the book of Acts from John Bourgeois on June 8, 2025. Our hope for you is that you will know, love, and follow Jesus Christ -- leading to personal transformation, intimate community, and a life of radical mission. You are always welcome to join us for worship at West End Community Church.For more info, please visit the WECC website at westendcc.org

We're all searching for purpose: what if Jesus has the answer? In this powerful message from Acts 11, Pastor Steve Zarrilli reminds us that the mission of the Church is to help people belong to Christ, grow in Christ, and reach the world for Christ. This passage challenges us to move past self-preservation and step into Gospel-centered living. We'll look at how early believers made a difference by boldly sharing their faith, equipping everyday people for leadership, and living out the mission of Jesus with radical generosity. Listen in to discover how their example can still inspire us today.

The Bible's description of Heaven reveals what drives and motivates God every day - reaching and saving people of all kinds, seeing us all united together around Him. The early church struggled with expansion and evangelism beyond Judea. Acts 11 is a turning point, wherein Peter confesses his own resistance to God's plan and why he eventually surrendered to it. Listen as we consider what it means to stand in God's way and determine if we are guilty of any measure of it.

He recounts his vision of unclean animals and God's command not to call impure what He has made clean. Peter reveals how the Holy Spirit descended on the Gentiles, confirming that God has granted them the repentance that leads to life. Meanwhile, some scattered Jewish believers begin preaching to Greeks in Antioch, and many turn to the Lord. The church in Jerusalem sends Barnabas to Antioch to encourage the new saints, and he ultimately recruits Saul, working with the church there for a year. Disciples of Jesus are first called Christians in Antioch. These disciples hear of a famine in Judea and send funds for the relief of the brethren, which Barnabas and Saul deliver.  Peter introduced something new to the saints in Jerusalem, and they were not initially receptive. However, they were willing to listen as he shared how God brought salvation to the Gentiles. Change is always challenging, especially when it means acceptance of others, but humble hearts will keep open ears and learn to embrace what honors the will of God. Fortunately, this paved the way for more Jews to share the gospel with Gentiles, allowing the church to thrive and expand. Perhaps changing attitudes toward others and a willingness to broaden outreach can benefit local churches today. Ironically, Gentile Christians in Antioch sent funds to assist needy Jewish saints. A thriving fellowship emerges when brethren step beyond their comfort zones.  Compassionate God, thank You for granting us repentance that leads to life. We are unworthy of Your grace, yet we live in the peace and joy of reconciliation with You through Jesus Christ. Please open our hearts to the way You are working to reach others and prepare us to have open arms. Help us to be like Barnabas, a man full of the Holy Spirit and faith and therefore ready to work for Your cause. And like the Christians who sent funds to help their brothers, teach us how to be more generous and involved in supporting fellow believers.  Thought Questions: -       How do you remain open to God's will, even when it challenges your expectations and traditions, like when Peter accepted Gentiles?  -       If God sent you to go and encourage new saints for a year, would you be willing to do it? How can you do such work where you live now? -       New Christians sent funds to help believers they did not even know. How should you emulate that in the way you support needy Christians?

In Acts 11:19-30, we see the founding of the Church at Antioch. This Church, which seems to be the first Church to bring in many Gentiles, is a church that plays a major role in the book of Acts and throughout Church History. As we look at this passage we find some interesting developments of the church in Acts and also many things that are applicable for the life of the church today. Tune into this episode to learn more.This sermon was first preached by Jackson Hankey at River City Church in Fargo, ND, on 5/18/2025.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Acts 11, in which Peter explains the reception of the Gospel by a Gentile family and a vision he'd been given by God. Anyone who calls on the name of Jesus is made clean by the shedding of his blood.

This week, Pastor Joe continues our sermon series on Gathering and Belonging by turning to Peter retelling his experiences before the believers in Jerusalem. In this sermon, he reminds us that it is often institutionalized religion that hinders the movement of the Spirit, and that we are called to recognize that belonging begins with God, with the Spirit, and with the grace that arrives before we expect it.

Leave a Review to help our audience grow!--May 18, 2025 -- Pr. Kyle Blake -- "Go!" -- Acts 11:1-18The apostles and the believers throughout Judea heard that people who were not Jewish had accepted God's word. 2 However, when Peter went to Jerusalem, the believers who insisted on circumcision began to argue with him. 3 They said, “You went to visit men who were uncircumcised, and you even ate with them.” 4 Then Peter began to explain to them point by point what had happened. He said, 5 “I was praying in the city of Joppa when I fell into a trance. I saw something like a large linen sheet being lowered by its four corners from the sky. The sheet came near me. 6 I looked into the sheet very closely and saw tame animals, wild animals, reptiles, and birds. 7 I also heard a voice telling me, ‘Get up, Peter! Kill these animals, and eat them.' 8 “But I answered, ‘I can't do that, Lord! I've never put anything impure or unclean [a] into my mouth.' 9 “A voice spoke from heaven a second time, ‘Don't say that the things which God has made clean [b] are impure.' 10 This happened three times. Then everything was pulled back into the sky again. 11 “At that moment three men arrived at the house where we were staying. They had been sent from Caesarea to find me. 12 The Spirit told me to go with them without any hesitation. Six believers ⌞from Joppa⌟ went with me, and we visited Cornelius' home. 13 “He told us that he had seen an angel standing in his home. The angel told him, ‘Send messengers to Joppa, and summon a man whose name is Simon Peter. 14 He will give you a message that will save you and everyone in your home.' 15 “When I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came to these people. This was the same thing that happened to us in the beginning. 16 I remembered that the Lord had said, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized by the Holy Spirit.' 17 When they believed, God gave them the same gift that he gave us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ. So who was I to interfere with God?” 18 When the others heard this, they had no further objections. They praised God by saying, “Then God has also led people who are not Jewish to turn to him so that they can change the way they think and act and have eternal life.”http://www.bethanylutheran.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.facebook.com/Bethany.Long.Beach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/c/BethanyLutheranLongBeach

Sunday May 11, 2025 at the Hub City Church Living Up to Our Label | Acts 11:19-30 The Gospel for All | a teaching series through Acts Sermon by Tadd Anderson | Lead Teaching Pastor Sermon Notes: “The gospel is not a doctrine of the tongue, but of life. It cannot be grasped by reason and memory only, but it is fully understood when it possesses the whole soul and penetrates to the inner recesses of the heart.” — John Calvin The ‘Christian' label was given not just based on belief in Jesus but a lifestyle of discipleship - being told the gospel, taught to obey it, eager to tell others and faithful to teach them as well. 1. Christians never graduate from needing to be told the gospel. 1 Corinthians 15:1 // Philippians 3:1 // 2 Peter 1:12 2. Christians highly prioritize being taught to be faithful to Christ in all of life. Matthew 28:20 // Colossians 1:28 // Philippians 1:27 // 2 Timothy 3:16-17 3. Christians naturally tell others about the hope available in Jesus. 2 Corinthians 5:20 // 1 Peter 3:15 4. Christian maturity looks like teaching others to follow Christ with us. 2 Timothy 2:2 // 1 Corinthians 11:1 The Hub City Church is a local expression of the church in Crestview, Florida, making disciples Who Believe the Gospel, Abide in Christ and Obey the Word to the glory of God. Join us next Sunday at 10am. 837 W James Lee Blvd, Crestview, FL 32536.

Year C, Fifth Sunday of Easter

This chapter describes the growth of the church in Antioch, the first place believers are called Christians. Barnabas (the son of encouragement) was sent by the Jerusalem church to Antioch to oversee this new growth and brings Saul with him. They were a powerful team that God used to bring the Word and encourage the believers to remain faithful in spreading the Gospel. May we be just as faithful and committed to sharing the Gospel.  By Dave Bartlett

Ministry in the church is not always one thing. There are seasons of fruitfulness, but also times of conflict. Growth seems to bring conflict naturally. Today as we look at Acts 11, we see both conflict and fruitful ministry and in both cases, we also see the Spirit of God at work in the young church.

Anchored in Hope: Growing Deeper in Faith – Hebrews 6 Part 1In this episode of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane walk through Hebrews 6, unpacking its deep encouragements and strong warnings. What does it mean to move beyond spiritual infancy? How do we respond to the sobering call to maturity while holding fast to the unshakable hope we have in Christ? This conversation leans into the tension of warning and promise, reminding us that our faith isn't meant to stay stagnant—but to grow, bear fruit, and remain anchored in God's unchanging promises.____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams____________________________________ Get Jamie's Newest Book:Living Loved: An 8-week Journey to Living Fully Loved

Acts 11:19-30 19 Now those who were scattered because of the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews. 20 But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who on coming to Antioch spoke to the Hellenists also, preaching the Lord Jesus. 21 And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number who believed turned to the Lord. 22 The report of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. 23 When he came and saw the grace of God, he was glad, and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast purpose, 24 for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord. 25 So Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul, 26 and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a great many people. And in Antioch the disciples were first called Christians. 27 Now in these days prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. 28 And one of them named Agabus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine over all the world (this took place in the days of Claudius). 29 So the disciples determined, every one according to his ability, to send relief to the brothers living in Judea. 30 And they did so, sending it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.

Mature Faith: Moving Beyond the Basics – Hebrews 5 Part 2Jamie and Jane continue their study of Hebrews 5 by unpacking verses 7–14, where we're called to grow in spiritual maturity. What does it look like to move from milk to meat in your walk with God? This episode challenges us to embrace spiritual growth, recognize immaturity, and press deeper into obedience—even when it's hard. It's a powerful encouragement for anyone feeling stuck or ready for more.____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams____________________________________ Get Jamie's Newest Book:Living Loved: An 8-week Journey to Living Fully Loved
