Pastor Xavier Ries and Pastor Tony Scotti continue an examination in the book of Acts.
January 11, 2026 What if we have settled for comfortable, powerless Christianity? What if God wants to fill us with a powerful fire that changes us and changes the world around us. Listen in as, Pastor Markus Witherspoon unpacks how the Spirit empowers ordinary people to do extraordinary things, turning timid followers into bold witnesses who carry Jesus into their homes, workplaces, and cities. About this Sermon Series The book of Acts tells the story of how the exalted Christ sends His Spirit to empower His people to continue His work in the world. Through the Spirit's power, ordinary believers boldly proclaim the gospel, witness miraculous works, and form vibrant communities that embody God's welcome to all people. Acts traces how the church's witness, energized by the Spirit, extends from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth, revealing Christ's ongoing work through His people and the Spirit's leading in every new challenge and opportunity.
Pastor Rick Andrew continues our series on the Book of Acts, speaking from Acts 15:36-16:1-10
God is sovereign over everything and everyone. This truth is meant to free us from the fear of what is happening in the world around us and to help us speak the word of God boldly to those who do not yet know Jesus! God in his sovereignty brought about the death of his son Jesus, so that his plan of salvation would come to pass. Nothing can stand in the way of our God!
January 4, 2026 Are you prepared? Many adventures in life require preparation. In the same way, God cares about getting us prepared for how He invites us into His plan. Listen in as Pastor Brooks Fuller helps prepare us not only to embrace the new year, but to live fully engaged in God's plan! About this Sermon Series The book of Acts tells the story of how the exalted Christ sends His Spirit to empower His people to continue His work in the world. Through the Spirit's power, ordinary believers boldly proclaim the gospel, witness miraculous works, and form vibrant communities that embody God's welcome to all people.

Acts 4 introduces us to a new era in the early church – an era marked by persecution, suffering, and opposition. However, at the moment that we would expect their momentum to slow, we discover the opposite. The gospel advances, God's people are emboldened, and more people come to know Jesus than ever before. Here's the lesson: only the gospel can turn a trial into a pulpit!
A miracle happens in Acts 3, but it isn't the main event. The miracle points to the gospel, celebrates lives changed by the gospel, and opens the door for people to repent and believe. In this, Acts 3 shows a gospel demonstration followed by a gospel explanation that leads others to a gospel invitation, and through Peter and John we learn that faith in Jesus shines bright for Jesus!

Acts 3:1–10 shows that Jesus, after his death, resurrection, and ascension, continues to bring outsiders into the presence of God through the power of His name.

Pastor Mike continues our series on the Book of Acts, speaking from Acts 15 - A New Identity Through the Gospel
There are a lot of things we can be devoted to in this life, a thousand things we can give our time, energy and commitments to. In Acts 2 we see the very first Christians in history devoting themselves to 3 main things. They were continually: Devoted to Gods Word. Devoted to Gods people. Devoted to worshipping God. This created a community that put the love of Jesus on display for one another and the world around them.

Journey with us as we review Acts 1-8. We'll also spend time reviewing YOUR responses to our most recent Riddle Time, and play a few rounds of Guess the Sound.
Acts 2:14-41 gives us the first gospel message proclaimed by someone other than Jesus in the New Testament. It sets a pattern for what the gospel is, what it requires, and what it accomplishes in the lives of those who hear it. In short, the gospel is the message of redemption for our responsibility for sin, calling us to a response of remorse and repentance that leads to revival through the resurrection of Jesus from the dead!

Pastor Mike continues our series on the Book of Acts, speaking from Acts 13:13-52 - Grace to You
Pentecost is often remembered for the way that God's people spoke in tongues but Pentecost isn't about speaking in tongues. Instead, Acts 2:1‑13 shows us what happens when God gives His people His Spirit: His power fills them, His presence rests on them, and His people are gathered to proclaim His gospel for the glory of Jesus!

Decision-making can feel daunting. God's people once rolled the dice to know His will, but now His Spirit is available to guide the Christian's every step. Because of Jesus, we are led, empowered, and sent—trusting God, following His Spirit, and joining Jesus in His mission.

Pastor Mike continues our series on the Book of Acts, speaking from Acts 12 - Peter in Prison
The Books of Acts introduces us to Jesus' disciples and their expectations about what they thought the resurrection accomplished. In their mind, they thought that Jesus rose to restore God's Kingdom to the Jews. Jesus tells them that he rose to bring the invitation into God's kingdom to the whole world instead. With that, we learn that the mission of Jesus is about witnesses, not winning, because Jesus Christ has already won!
