May. 25, 2025 - Connect in Community (Acts 2:41-47) - Transforming Lives - Barry Smith - cpcspokane.org

Jesus had promised his disciples that they would receive the Holy Spirit to empower them to be witnesses to all the earth. Get ready, because it's happening! The event known as Pentecost marks the arrival of the Holy Spirit, where God's presence is intimately experienced by believers and empowers them to fulfill the Great Commission. And wow, what a sight it would've been!

In this episode of the Sermon Brainwave podcast, Profs. Karoline Lewis, Matt Skinner, and Rolf Jacobson discuss the readings for Pentecost, focusing on Acts 2, Genesis 11, and the implications of the Holy Spirit's presence. They explore themes of diversity, inclusion, and the transformative power of the Spirit in the early church, as well as the significance of the Paraclete in John 14 and the assurance found in Romans 8. The conversation emphasizes the ongoing relevance of Pentecost in the life of the church today. Commentaries for the Day of Pentecost can be found on the Working Preacher website at https://www.workingpreacher.org/commentaries/revised-common-lectionary/day-of-pentecost-3/commentary-on-john-148-17-25-27-6. ⏰Timecodes⏰ 00:00 Introduction to Day of Pentecost Readings 02:58 Exploring Acts 2 and the Holy Spirit 06:00 Diversity and Inclusion in the Pentecost Narrative 08:57 The Role of the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament 11:58 Understanding Genesis and Babel 15:01 The Promise of the Paraclete in John 14 18:14 The Significance of Psalm 104 20:48 The Assurance of Romans 8 21:28 Outro *  *  * Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share to stay connected with more insightful lectionary discussions!

In Week 5 of our From Here On... series, we look at Peter's bold sermon in Acts 2:14–41 and see how the heart of the gospel—and the heart of our lives—is Jesus. From prophecy to resurrection, from grace to power, Peter proclaims that Jesus is the fulfillment of God's promises and the center of our hope. Drawing from passages like 1 Corinthians 15 and Isaiah 53, Pastor Matt reminds us that Jesus isn't just part of the story—He is the story. From here on, it's all about Jesus.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

Acts 2:1-4 New King James Version   2 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

There is a gift of grace that God has placed on your life and He wants you to use it. The divine invitation extended to each of us is this: step into the unique role God has designed for us in His Body. In this powerful message, Hayley Braun calls the Church to attention, reminding us that we're not meant to spectate—we're meant to take our place. The grace of God is more than favor, it's His empowering presence resting on your life to do what you could never do on your own. When we recognize and honor the grace He's placed on ourselves and others, the Body begins to move in unity and power. There's a grace gift on your life, and the world needs you to use it. Get ready to wake up to what's been entrusted to you!

Listen along as we continue our time in the book of Acts. Notes//Quotes: Acts 2:42-47 Haiku - Following Jesus, learning from Him, joining in His mission on earth  “The idea of salvation cannot be reduced to a personal relationship with Jesus. God's plan is much more encompassing. God intends for salvation to be a community-creating event.” Joseph Hellerman “Long-term interpersonal relationships are the crucible of genuine progress in the Christian life. People who stay also grow. People who leave do not grow. We all know people who are consumed with spiritual wanderlust. But we never get to know them very well because they cannot seem to stay put. They move along from church to church, ever searching for a congregation that will better satisfy their felt needs. Like trees repeatedly transplanted from soil to soil, these spiritual nomads fail to put down roots and seldom experience lasting and fruitful growth in their Christian lives.” - Joseph Hellerman  ”These four go together. You can't separate them, or leave one out, without damage to the whole thing. Where no attention is given to teaching, and to constant, lifelong Christian learning, people quickly refer to the worldview or mindset of the surrounding culture, and end up with their minds shaped by whichever social pressures are most persuasive, with Jesus somewhere around as a pale influence or memory. Where people ignore the common life of the Christian family (the technical term often used is "fellowship", which is more than friendship but not less), they become isolated, and often find it difficult to sustain a living faith. Where people no longer share regularly in 'the breaking of bread' (the early Christian term for the simple meal that took them back to the Upper Room 'in remembrance of Jesus'), they are failing to raise the flag which says 'Jesus' death and resurrection are the centre of everything. And whenever people do all these things but neglect prayer, they are quite simply forgetting that Christians are supposed to be heaven-and earth people. Prayer makes no sense whatever - unless heaven and earth are designed to be joined together, and we can share in that already.”NT Wright Gospel doctrine creates a gospel culture. The doctrine of grace creates a culture of grace. When the doctrine is clear and the culture is beautiful, that church will be powerful. But there are no shortcuts to getting there. Without the doctrine, the culture will be weak. Without the culture, the doctrine will seem pointless. Ray Ortlund “Money flows effortlessly to that which is its god.” Tim Keller “If the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil, then perhaps the love of generosity is the root of all kinds of good.” CS Lewis “Prayer, in the sense of union with God, is the most crucifying thing there is. One must do it for God's sake; but one will not get any satisfaction out of it, in the sense of feeling “I am good at prayer. I have an infallible method.” That would be disastrous, since what we want to learn is precisely our own weakness, powerlessness, unworthiness. Nor ought one to expect “a sense of the reality of the supernatural” of which I speak. And one should wish for no prayer, except precisely the prayer that God gives us—probably very distracted and unsatisfactory in every way.” Henri Nouwen

Acts 2:22-41

Evangelical Free Church of Canton

Send us a textIn this episode of Viewpoints, Pastor John Gerlach and Worship Pastor Jordan Voyles unpack the powerful sermon from Acts 2, where Peter confronts the crowd with a bold truth: “You killed Him.”What does conviction really mean for us today? Why were the people in Acts "cut to the heart"? And how do we respond when God shows us something that needs to change?From personal stories to biblical insights, John and Jordan explore how conviction is not condemnation—but a divine invitation to life change. Don't miss this honest, encouraging, and grace-filled conversation that reminds us: Conviction is a sign God is still working in us.

The believer in Christ is forgiven and receives the Holy Spirit. Justification, adoption, and sanctification.

In Acts 2 we see the coming of the promised Holy Spirit who enables God's presence with us, empowers our gospel proclamation, brings genuine transformation, and fuels gospel-shaped community.

A crowd gathers, and these anointed men from Galilee begin speaking in various languages. The people are amazed. The apostles then stand and address the Jewish audience. They explain that these miracles were prophesied hundreds of years earlier in the book of Joel. They then begin preaching Jesus. They tell of His miracles, His death and resurrection, and how this is God's plan and prophesied by David a thousand years before. The people are pierced to the heart and ask what to do. They are told to repent and be baptized for the forgiveness of their sins. Three thousand people are baptized and commit to learning, worshiping, and fellowship together. The age of Christ's church begins! This chapter is the centerpiece of scripture and human history. God had been building toward salvation in Christ and His church for centuries. The Holy Spirit came upon the apostles, and the combination of miraculous action and divine truth changed the world. Many who had participated in crucifying Jesus were humbled and repented of their sins. The church began with awe and joy. New believers met together for worship and then house to house to enjoy meals. This is exactly how the word of God affects people today. It opens our eyes to Jesus and causes shame for our sins. It unites us in faith, worship, and daily service to others. There is joy and salvation in the Lord's church!   Gracious Lord, You have extended incredible kindness to us in Your Son. We praise You for His coming, miracles and teachings, resurrection from the dead, and the salvation found only in Him. Lord, help us see the potency of the truth. The apostles converted thousands of Jews, many of whom had previously hated Jesus. What can the gospel of Jesus Christ do today? We pray its deepest impact begins in our hearts. Give us faith to turn from our sins. Show us peace in fellowship with believers in Christ, and challenge us to be active, daily servants in Christ's church.  Thought Questions: -       The apostles spoke in tongues. What did it sound like in this text? How is that different than modern-day tongue-speaking claims? -       Peter's sermon is focused on Jesus. Is Jesus the central figure and focus when you teach about His church? Why is that important? -       How did people respond to the message about Jesus? What did they do? Note how it goes far beyond the initial act of baptism.

In Week 4 of our From Here On... series, we step into the powerful moment of Pentecost in Acts 2:1–13. This pivotal event marks not only the birth of the Church but the unleashing of God's mission to the nations—fueled by the power of the Holy Spirit. As we see in scripture and from voices like NT Wright, Sam Storms, and John Piper, the purpose of mission is worship: to see all peoples rejoice in the greatness of God. Pastor Matt reminds us that from here on, we are called to Spirit-empowered witness that invites the world into the transforming joy of God's glory.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!
