Christ the King Anglican Church Toronto's sermon from July 27, 2025.

The Acts Of The Apostles: Acts 20: 1-37 by Gospel Centered Mission Focused

Acts 20:1-16 English Standard VersionPaul in Macedonia and Greece20 After the uproar ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them, he said farewell and departed for Macedonia. 2 When he had gone through those regions and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece. 3 There he spent three months, and when a plot was made against him by the Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia. 4 Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and the Asians, Tychicus and Trophimus. 5 These went on ahead and were waiting for us at Troas, 6 but we sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Troas, where we stayed for seven days.Eutychus Raised from the Dead7 On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he prolonged his speech until midnight. 8 There were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered. 9 And a young man named Eutychus, sitting at the window, sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked still longer. And being overcome by sleep, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead. 10 But Paul went down and bent over him, and taking him in his arms, said, “Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him.” 11 And when Paul had gone up and had broken bread and eaten, he conversed with them a long while, until daybreak, and so departed. 12 And they took the youth away alive, and were not a little comforted.13 But going ahead to the ship, we set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go by land. 14 And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went to Mitylene. 15 And sailing from there we came the following day opposite Chios; the next day we touched at Samos; and the day after that we went to Miletus. 16 For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not have to spend time in Asia, for he was hastening to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the day of Pentecost.English Standard Version (ESV)The Holy Bible, English Standard Version.

Compelled by the Holy Spirit to preach the good news in Jerusalem despite the danger, Paul says farewell to the Ephesian elders. Like Paul, we are invited to find strength in the Lord when walking through hardship.

In Acts, we catch glimpses of the early church living in community - speaking words of encouragement, worshiping God and breaking bread together. What does it look like for us to live in community today?

OEFC Tuesday Night Bible Study

Caleb Drahosh At the end of the first week of creation, God blessed the seventh day and set it apart as a Sabbath day for rest and worship. Since the resurrection of Christ, the Church has recognized the first day of the week and called it the Lord's Day, because it is the day that Christ was raised from the dead. On this Lord's Day, we rest from all our work (excepting works of necessity and mercy) to joyfully worship God—in public with the gathered church and in private with our families. The aim of our gathering is the building up of the church by equipping and encouraging one another to love and good works.

Evangelism is a tricky thing, isn't it? On the one hand, it's something that can seem so foreign and uncomfortable to us (in part due to some really bad examples we've gotten). And on the other hand, it's something that we often see reserved for a select few who God has called for that purpose.In Acts chapter 20, Paul makes what shouldn't be, but often is a stunning revelation: that the job of evangelism belongs to all of us. In fact, as believers, it is THE race that we are called to run.So how do we overcome the various obstacles that stop us from testifying? That's what we dove into this weekend, while also reframing our view of evangelism so that we learn to see it in the correct light and hold it with the significance that it deserves.

Pastor Sam     Acts 20:1-38

In his first sermon as senior pastor, Micah Stephens preaches from Acts 20, honoring Pastor Rob McCoy's legacy while challenging the church to keep God's whole counsel. Reflecting on the Fourth of July and the gala celebrating Pastor Rob's 25 years, Pastor Micah draws parallels with Paul's farewell to the Ephesian elders, emphasizing humility, unwavering truth, and obedience to God's Word. He connects America's founding principles to biblical virtues, urging believers to restrain evil through God's law to maintain liberty. Addressing local issues like the Ventura Care Act and global concerns like the 27 missing Christian girls, he calls for bold proclamation of repentance and faith, regardless of cost, to transform culture and secure an eternal inheritance for the next generation.Verse References: Acts 20 verses 17–27, Joshua 1 verse 9, Psalm 84 verse 10, 1 Corinthians 11 verse 1, 1 Timothy 4 verse 12, Proverbs 9 verses 8–9, James 4 verse 17, Galatians 2 verse 20, Mark 8 verses 36–37, Hebrews 13 verse 17, Psalm 119 verse 45, Acts 18 verses 24–26, Acts 16 verse 6Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!And you can always head over to our website for any general information!https://godspeak.comPrayer/NeedsIf you have any needs, or have a willingness to be used to meet various need in the body, please email info@godspeak.com.

Acts 12:20–24 records a brief but striking narrative about a man who, in his pride, opposed the church, only to find himself opposed by God. Herod was a man who suffered deeply from delusions of grandeur: ideas and visions of one's self worth and importance that are out of step with reality. This malady is a temptation for all who are not clearly fixing their gaze on the mission of Jesus. When we seek the flattery and praise of others, we are at risk of deluding ourselves. We consider three things from this text: 1. ⁠God's Purpose on Stage (vv. 1–19) 2. ⁠Herod's Pride on Stage (vv. 20–22) 3. ⁠God's Power on Stage (vv. 23–25)

Send us a textGood morning! Thank you for taking a few minutes to listen. If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)Spiritbuilding.com - (premium quality paperback)Youtube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comActs 20 Paul continues his journey, traveling through Macedonia and Greece and encouraging the believers. He stops in Troas, where the Christians “break bread," and he preaches until midnight. During his sermon, a young man named Eutychus falls asleep, tumbles out of the window, and dies. Paul revives him, demonstrating incredible power from God. Later, Paul meets with the elders from Ephesus in Miletus for an emotional farewell. He reflects on his ministry, emphasizing his faithfulness in proclaiming the gospel despite facing trials. He warns them to guard their flock against false teachers and to care for the church, which was purchased with Christ's blood. Paul's heartfelt goodbye includes prayers and tears as he commends them to the word of God's grace and encourages them to actively help the weak among them. This chapter's use of "we” pronouns suggests that the author, Luke, accompanies Paul on this journey, adding credibility to the book of Acts. Luke documents a Sunday gathering, the purpose of which was to gather together to "break bread.” This example implies a Sunday observance of the Lord's Supper, which we still honor today. Preaching until midnight is less common now, as it can lead to dangerous sleep incidents! Eutychus's revival after falling serves as a testament to God's mercy and power. Paul's meeting with the Ephesian elders establishes another model for churches today: elders within local congregations attending to the spiritual needs of their flock. Elders are to be students of the word and supporters of the weak among them.  Benevolent Father, we praise You for the abundant gifts of grace provided through Your Son. We thank You for the perfect and indestructible word that reveals so many beautiful truths to us. We pray for wisdom in studying the word and seeking guidance on how to honor You. May we draw from Acts 20 the importance of gathering on Sundays to partake of the Lord's Supper together. Instill in our hearts a yearning for fellowship. Father, please bless our local churches with devoted elders. Work on all our hearts, shaping us to love the flock and serve in Jesus' honor.  Thought Questions: -       Disciples planned to meet to break bread and study. How important is that example in how you build your weekly schedule around Jesus? -       Paul shared his personal resolve before instructing elders. How important is your own walk of faith as you hope to then teach others? -       The elders were told to stay alert, study well, and help the weak among them. How can you help the local eldership accomplish these goals?

Throughout the book of Acts, we witness the resurrection life of Jesus take root and grow, not in theory, but in bodies, cities, communities, and cultures. The gospel is not only something we believe—it's something we live. In suffering and in joy, in conflict and in hospitality, in worship and in witness, in movement and in mission, the early church becomes a living sign of God's new creation.Sermon by Rev. Jamie Noling-Auth

We're talking spiritual sleep. Eutychus nodded off during church, and it almost cost him everything. If you've been drifting, coasting, or sitting on the edge: this is your wake-up call.
