Acts 7:44-53 – Stephen: The Prophets

Today is day 275 and we are studying The Second Commandment. 275. What does the second commandment mean? God's people are neither to worship man-made images of God or of other gods nor to make such images for the purpose of worshiping them. (Exodus 20:23; 34:17; Leviticus 26:1; Deuteronomy 4:15–20; 27:15; Psalm 97:6–9; Acts 17:22–29; 2 Corinthians 6:16–18) We will conclude today by praying the Daleth Stanza of Psalm 119 which is verses 25-32 found on page 429 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

She earned a great deal of money for her owners by fortune-telling. 17 She followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who are telling you the way to be saved.” 18 She kept this up for many days. Finally Paul became so annoyed that he turned around and said to the spirit, “In the name of Jesus Christ I command you to come out of her!” At that moment the spirit left her.

A key hang up causing the government shutdown involves a pandemic-era provision for Americans impacting health insurance and medical bills. Currently, about 300,000 Arizonans earn too much to receive Medicaid help, but don't have affordable insurance options through work. This group has qualified for subsidies that cut their insurance costs from the Affordable Care Act insurers since 2021. This relief stops at the end of the year unless Congress moves to extend it, and if aid ends, Arizonans face premium hikes that could jump by nearly $500 per month. This week on The Gaggle, we talk with Will Humble, former state health director.

Send us a textThere are just some common, persistent Hebrew Roots claims—I would even call them “biblical myths,” because they're so clearly untrue, yet they're continually repeated and still believed. In this video, we explore and debunk four such claims made by Hebrew Roots (Torah-observant) teachers—claims that often lead believers into confusion and division. In fact, we will interact with actual clips from a Hebrew roots teacher named Melissa Smith (aka God's Little Hummingbird).Using Scripture as our authority, we test each claim for its theological soundness and practical implications:How do we define sin? How can Gentiles be freed from the law if they were never under it?Did the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15 give Gentile believers a "starter pack" of laws?Did Paul really keep the law in Acts 21?This video challenges the assumptions behind modern Torahism and aims to build up the body of Christ with clarity and truth. This discussion is a deep dive into biblical theology—more than just soundbites—and whether you're new to this conversation or deeply invested in it, you'll walk away with a clearer understanding of how the gospel of Jesus Christ stands in contrast to Torah-keeping legalism.The Biblical Roots MinistriesOur websiteOur YouTube ChannelProf. Solberg's BlogSupport our Ministry (Thank you!)

Acts 8:1-3

Today in History: Moses returned with new stone tablets on this day (according to tradition, see Exodus 34:28–29). Yeshua discussed the driving out of demons, blasphemy, and the sign of Jonah (possible date, see Matthew 12:22).

Drawing from the example of the widow's mite in Luke 21, they reflect on how this passage shapes our understanding of giving, particularly in the context of diaconal ministry.Much of the discussion centers on the application of the passage as it relates to the work of the deacon, and how the generosity of Jesus Christ should move our hearts toward love and sacrificial giving within the church. Together, they explore the deacon's role in fostering a culture of mercy ministry and faithful giving.Listen in as Chris, John, and Bob offer gospel-centered insights on selfless generosity, financial stewardship and the church's call to care for those in need.Referenced in this episode:Scripture ·       Luke 21:1–4 ·       Psalm 110:1·       Acts 6·       2 Corinthians 9:6–8, 15·       2 Corinthians 8:9·       1 Timothy 5:8·       Philippians 4:11–12·       Philippians 2:1–8·       John Calvin— Institutes' section on prayerOPC Book of Church Order on deacons You can find all of our episodes at thereformeddeacon.org.

2 Corinthians 8–9 records Paul's advice to Corinth about the Jerusalem Collection. But it isn't just about fundraising. In order to understand this event, we trace the story behind the Jerusalem Collection. We look at various passages in Acts, Galatians and Romans. so we can hear Paul's appeal to Corinth the way his first listeners did.

As we continue in our daily study in the Key Chapters of the Bible, today we turn to Acts 13 which chronicles the journey of Paul and Barnabas with the Gospel. We'll talk about where they go and how God used them to proclaim His Gospel to the world. Join us!

He Was Forsaken and We Were Remembered MESSAGE SUMMARY: In today's message, we're reminded of the profound truth that Jesus is the answer to the deepest struggles of humanity. We're called to open our eyes to the suffering around us - broken relationships, addictions, financial burdens, and physical ailments. This reflection challenges us to see beyond our own circumstances and recognize the pain in others. The central theme echoes Christ's compassion and His desire for a relationship with each of us. As His body, the church, we're entrusted with the responsibility to extend His love to those in need. This message invites us to consider: How can we be the hands and feet of Jesus in a world crying out for hope and healing?   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I now take a deep breath and stop. So often I miss your hand and gifts in my life because I am preoccupied and anxious. Grant me the power to pause each day and each week to simply rest in your arms of love. In Jesus' name, amen.    Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 132). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that, because I am in Jesus Christ, God is working His will in my life (Philippians 2:13). “I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.”. (Philippians 4:14).

Daily Dose of Hope September 30 and October 1, 2025   Scripture – John 1:19-51   Prayer: Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful. And kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And you will renew the face of the earth. Lord, by the light of the Holy Spirit you have taught the hearts of your faithful. In the same Spirit help us to relish what is right and always rejoice in your consolation. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional/podcast that complements the New Hope Church daily Bible reading plan.  We are currently working our way through a deep dive into the Gospels and Acts.  Today, we continue our deep dive into John 1.    Today's reading begins with John the Baptist, although the Gospel of John does not use the term Baptist to describe him.  Earlier in the chapter, John had been called a witness to the light.  So, the Jewish leaders sent people to ask John who he is, specifically is he the Messiah?  Is he Elijah?  Is he the prophet?  Their frustration is evident.  They want answers.    John will not be labeled.  Instead, he describes himself using the words of Isaiah.  He is the “voice of one crying out in the wilderness.”  John's call is to repent and be baptized.  His message wouldn't be popular but it was necessary.  In other Gospels, John makes it clear that he isn't the Messiah but he is preparing the way for the Messiah.  This does not thrill the Jewish leaders.  They want more concrete information.  Why is he baptizing?  John says that he uses water to baptize but one is coming that will be much greater than he who will do more.   As John continues to baptize, he begins to testify about Jesus.  When he first sees Jesus, he calls him the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.  As we move through the book of John, we will see how the author begins to make connections between Jesus and the Passover lamb.  John the testifier describes Jesus as one who outranks him.  He then describes Jesus' baptism, with the Spirit descending on him like a dove and a voice (presumably the Father) declaring that the man on whom the dove descends will baptize with the Holy Spirit.  John then testifies that Jesus is God's chosen one.   Let's talk about that title, “God's chosen one.”  Other translations use the title, “Son of God.”  Clearly, John is making a statement that Jesus is the Messiah.  He is the one they have been waiting for to save God's people.  He is the one who God has sent, uniquely selected by God to fulfill a divine purpose.  Jesus is God himself, sent to fulfill prophecy, to usher in God's Kingdom, and to redeem all of creation.    The remainder of this first chapter is Jesus calling his disciples.  Andrew and John were the first two disciples Jesus called and they were originally disciples of John the Baptist.  When they hear John the Baptist declare that Jesus is the Lamb of God, they acted immediately and boldly followed Jesus without any kind of hesitation.    It's as they begin to follow Jesus (literally follow him) that Jesus asks them a simple question, “What do you want?”  They answer with a question of their own, “Where are you staying?” And Jesus then invites them to “Come and see...”  They end up spending the day with Jesus.    Jesus invites all of us to “come and see...” where he is staying and what he is doing.  Keep in mind that Jesus is always up to something, he is always at work among us.    He also invites Philip and Nathaniel to come and see and they choose to do so as well.  It takes a bit of convincing for Nathaniel who is convinced that nothing good could come from Nazareth.  But he sees Jesus' power and he too decides to follow.   I think sometimes we make an invitation to follow Jesus a little too difficult.  What would it look like for us to simply invite people to “come and see” what Jesus is up to.  A decision to follow Jesus may just start with curiosity.  That's okay.  Invite the people around you to come and see and Jesus will do the rest.   Blessings, Pastor Vicki          

Isaiah 47-49; Psalms 1-3; Acts 9

This week we discuss how you can be in the will of God and opposition still come to make you feel like you hit rock bottom.  Despite the opposition we face we can look at the example of Paul and Silas in Acts 16 and in the moments of trials we can pray and praise.  

Robert Huish talks with Alex Guye about a new analysis of 30 years of political violence in the US. It finds more incidents by left-wing attackers than right-wing attackers, so far in 2025 -- the first time this has happened in data they covered going back to the mid-1990s. Here's the analysis > https://www.csis.org/analysis/ideological-trends-us-terrorism

James: Steadfast Life “nugzLn v|Lli6o hLjg”  James is supposedly the first epistle written (around AD 45-47). The Church was just being formed in Jerusalem. Christians were being persecuted. After the death of Stephen, churches were scattered across the region (Acts 11:19). Douglas Moo says, “James, [head of Jerusalem church] addresses a pastoral admonition to these believers from his home church who had been scattered abroad because of persecution.” So the audience at large (the twelve tribes scattered among the nations”  v1) lived lives as “refugees”.  The scattered churches were struggling against the pressures from the society and culture “worldliness” around them. They were suffering from trials and temptations that refugees would face in a foreign land without inherent identity, rights and liberty.  Worldliness is our problem as well. In a world where we live, we are pulled from every side, by the media, by society and neighbors around us, they speak volumes about what we should pursue, what is desirable, and how we should live our lives. Worldliness is right around us all the time, pulling us in different directions. Unless we choose to shut our eyes, seek God and his life for us, we'll easily buy into those values and voices of the “vision of good life”.  James, being the brother of Jesus, and having seen and heard, lived with Jesus and weighed his teaching against his own life and society around, he's a believer in what he's teaching as a reliable witness.  This series will help us study every section of the book of James, drawing parallels to our lives, and drawing lessons on how we must learn to stand firm and steadfast amidst circumstances we face in our life from the world surrounding us.

A new MP3 sermon from Calvary Baptist Churches of GB is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Who Defines You? Subtitle: Hot Topics Speaker: Dr. B. J. Stagner Jr. Broadcaster: Calvary Baptist Churches of GB Event: Current Events Date: 10/1/2025 Bible: Acts 8:25-39 Length: 26 min.

In this impactful message, Pastor Olubi Johnson teaches that education, exposure, and wealth are not carnal pursuits but tools God can use to fulfill His divine purposes—just as He did with Paul and Esther. Yet, these gifts must be surrendered to God, for He may use them as instruments of deliverance at appointed times (Acts 22:1–3; Est. 4:14). Pastor Olubi reminds us that every man carries the witness of God in his conscience, and as members of Christ's Body, whatever touches us touches the Lord Himself. He exhorts believers to embrace their divine destiny—discovering what God has written for their lives and faithfully fulfilling it. Faithfulness and resourcefulness are rewarded, but sloth and carnality can disqualify a man from his inheritance. Finally, he warns that God often allows uncomfortable seasons to strip us of pride rooted in education, background, or wealth. Such dealings are for our good, shaping us into humble, usable vessels prepared for His glory.   You can follow Pastor Olubi Johnson on X, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

The Political Scene's Washington Roundtable—the staff writers Jane Mayer, Susan Glasser, and Evan Osnos—discuss how, in the wake of the reinstatement of Jimmy Kimmel's show, public resistance has a chance to turn the tide against autocratic impulses in today's politics. They are joined by Hardy Merriman, an expert on the history and practice of civil resistance, to discuss what kinds of coördinated actions—protests, boycotts, “buycotts,” strikes, and other nonviolent approaches—are most effective in a fight against democratic backsliding. “Acts of non-coöperation are very powerful,” Merriman, the former president of the International Center on Nonviolent Conflict, says. “Non-coöperation is very much about numbers. You don't necessarily need people doing things that are high-risk. You just need large numbers of people doing them.”This segment originally aired on The Political Scene on September 26, 2025.

Acts 7:54-60

This week, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Paula Mohammed from In My Kitchen with Paula. Paula and I share a love of good food, connection, and exploring different cultures.Paula told me all about how she started In My Kitchen back in 2018 to bring people together and celebrate traditional recipes. We also talked about her podcast, where she shares amazing culinary stories from cooks all over the world.

Taylor and Jose sit down with Pastor of Spiritual Formation, Bob Maas, for an conversation on what it means to build a legacy rooted in integrity Christ.

The early church in Acts gave generously and sacrificially. How? They devoted themselves to Jesus' teachings on the subject and those of the Old Testament. Today we looked at six Biblical principles of giving that believers can follow today.This message is part of our series in the book of Acts, which is like the "part 2" of Luke's writing, capturing the life and ministry of Jesus as it's lived out through his early church.---Join us for service online or in-person in Grand Rapids every Sunday at 9AM & 10:45AM.

Today we turn to Acts 8 in our study of the Key Chapters of the Bible. This passage records the expansion of the Gospel into Samaria and how Simon Magus had false faith. It's a helpful passage for many questions of theology and we hope you join us!

The amazing truth of the Gospel is that God offers His kingdom to all people Jew and Gentile alike! Today we turn to Acts 10 and we'll see how God used Peter to bring the message to the Gentiles, and how this message continues to go out, even today. Join us!

Jesus is the visible expression of the invisible God. No need to look for another. MESSAGE SUMMARY: On this day of Pentecost, we're invited to explore the profound significance of the Holy Spirit in our lives. The message takes us through Jesus' teachings in John 14, where He promises the coming of the Helper - the Holy Spirit. We learn that the Spirit is not just a distant force, but a personal presence that dwells within us, bringing the very essence of Christ into our hearts. This indwelling Spirit transforms us, making us more like Jesus and empowering us to do His works. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to consider how we're allowing the Spirit to work in our lives. Are we grieving or quenching the Spirit through unforgiveness or sin? Or are we opening ourselves fully to His guidance and power? This Pentecost, let's renew our commitment to living Spirit-filled lives, recognizing that God's desire is for His presence to be with us always, not just now, but for eternity.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I now take a deep breath and stop. So often I miss your hand and gifts in my life because I am preoccupied and anxious. Grant me the power to pause each day and each week to simply rest in your arms of love. In Jesus' name, amen.    Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 132). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, because of I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I will not be controlled by my Addictions. Rather, I will walk in the Spirit's fruit of Self-Control. “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22f).

Jase, Al, and Zach sit down with Dallas Jenkins, director of “The Chosen,” for a candid peek behind the scenes on faith and filmmaking. Jase shares how Phil used to deal with producers who wanted to water down his Jesus talk, and Dallas walks through the show's guardrails including script review, theological checks and balances, and a constant aim to point viewers back to Scripture. The guys explore the industry's pressure to soften explicit faith, and how to keep Jesus' name loud and clear when the world doesn't want to hear it.
