In the beginning, humanity walked with God in a garden. Then the gate closed.From Genesis to Revelation, the story of Scripture is the story of a God who refuses to stay distant. Through tabernacle, temple, sacrifice, blood, glory, and promise — God was making a way to dwell with His people again.In this Lent 2026 series, How God Made a Way, we trace the thread from exile to access, from shadows to substance, from separation to presence. Every altar, every lampstand, every veil points forward to Jesus.Each week we'll see how what once stood between us and God is fulfilled in Christ — and how the risen Son now makes us His dwelling place.This isn't a series about temple facts.It's about the God who moved heaven and earth to bring us home.“In the past, God spoke through many things… but these days — through His Son.”Join us as we rediscover the story of atonement, glory, and grace.For more information or to get connected, visit us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.rcnb.org

In the conclusion to our series on "Vision", Roger Morris teaches that when God gives you a vision, it's of a better future you, not your present self, and you must believe and act on God's Word. He shares how he spoke faith over a broken cassette tape player until it worked, and he points to the Jordan River crossing where the water moved only after the priests stepped in. Roger warns that many believers won't trust God beyond salvation, and he urges you to dream bigger, give God the glory, and develop stewardship for what God entrusts to you.   Using Matthew 25:14-16 and Matthew 13:44 Roger explains that your words shape your identity, encourages speaking life to children, and uses Abraham and Jacob as examples of God seeing who they would become. From Genesis 13, he emphasizes that as you move, look, and walk by faith, God expands your boundaries—there's no wrong move except not moving.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:   00:00 God Sees Your Future 00:39 Speaking Faith Over Problems 02:12 Step Into the Water 03:39 Weird Religion vs Real Faith 06:19 Dream Bigger Give God Glory 08:06 Words Shape Your Kids 12:13 Kingdom Vision and Matthew 25 16:54 Treasure Vision and Stewardship 21:57 Abram Jacob and New Identity 23:00 Genesis 13 No Wrong Moves 26:49 Closing and How to Connect   Connect with Bill & Roger Ministries: www.billandroger.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064668460680

Do you remember the children's book, "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day"? That title also sums up what most Americans think about Trump's new war with Iran. Kaitlyn explains why the war is immoral based on Christian theology, Phil channels Ezra Klein to define America's new "heads on pikes" foreign policy, and Skye says the war fits Donald Trump's long pattern of laziness and impatience. Then, Preston Sprinkle is back to discuss his latest book, "From Genesis to Junia," about his journey to determine what the Bible really says about women in leadership. Also this week, Americans were the only people in a worldwide survey to say most of their fellow citizens are bad people.

At our Interactive Midweek Service, Pastor Colins Nwosu continued our teaching series In Search of Character (Part 4). From Genesis 6:1-9, we reflected on the story of Noah, a man who stood out in a generation that had largely abandoned godly standards. Even in a culture that had normalised corruption, Noah's life showed that integrity is still possible. Ecclesiastes 7:29 reminds us that God created humanity upright, yet people often choose their own paths. We were reminded that character is not about perfection, but about a consistent commitment to doing what is right. Proverbs 31:30 points us beyond outward appearances to the deeper value of reverence for God, while Galatians 5:22–23 describes the fruit that should grow in our lives when the Spirit leads us. Love, patience, faithfulness, and self control are not simply ideals but practical evidence of a transformed life. In a world fascinated with image, God still looks for substance. Confession: Lord, shape my life so that my choices, attitudes, and actions consistently reflect the character You desire to see in me.

Pr. Precious and Kimacia explore what it means for men to honor women biblically. From Genesis to the example of Jesus, they show how respect, dignity, and God's design should guide every relationship. A must-watch for kingdom-minded men seeking to lead with integrity.#citamchurchonline #ChurchEverydayGet in touch with us:http://www.citam.org/churchonline@citam.org(+254) 784 277 277

The Bible tells one big story. From Genesis to Revelation, the gospel is the good news that God loves the world. God loves the real you. Not the version you pretend to be, but you as you are. Jesus came to save, not condemn. John 3:17 reminds us that Christ came to rescue the world. The church should reflect Jesus. Instead of pointing fingers, we open our arms in grace. Our calling this week: Help others experience God's love.

What does the Bible mean by the “Host of Heaven?" In this episode, we explore the seven different biblical words translated as “host,” found in both the Old and New Testaments. While the term often refers to the vast heavenly army of angels serving God, it can also describe the stars and planets, earthly military forces, or even a person who shows hospitality. From Genesis to the New Testament, the Bible uses this word in several ways that reveal God's power, authority, and the structure of both the spiritual and physical realms.

What if salvation was never meant to be the finish line?In this episode, we begin a deep dive into one of the most foundational (and most misunderstood) themes in all of Scripture: covenant.From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible is not simply the story of individuals being "saved." It is the story of a covenant-keeping Elohim (God) forming a covenant people. Salvation is the invitation — covenant is the life that follows.In this episode, we lay the groundwork for a 9-part series exploring:• What covenant actually means in Scripture and the different covenants in Scripture• How the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants are connected yet distinct• What makes the “New Covenant” both new and renewed• Why priesthood, mediation, and inheritance matter• How misunderstanding covenant leads to misunderstanding PaulIf we don't understand covenant, we won't fully understand grace, obedience, priesthood, or what our Messiah accomplished.Salvation opens the door. Covenant teaches you how to live in the house.This is a deep Bible study series, and we're building foundations — not just preaching conclusions.I encourage you to watch these episodes in order. Take your time. Let Scripture interpret Scripture.Yah bless!Contact me: stephanie@promise-perspective.comVisit my website: www.promise-perspective.com Support the show

Can women be pastors? That's the question we're talking about today,  not as a hot take, not as a debate, but as an honest, Scripture-rooted conversation.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Preston Sprinkle to talk about his new book From Genesis to Junia and what the Bible really says about women in leadership. We talk about where he started personally, what surprised him in his research, and why this conversation feels so personal for so many women.We also gently step into topics like submission, headship, and how to hold biblical authority alongside compassion and context.If you've ever wondered about God's heart for women and their role in the Church, I can't wait for you to hear this conversation.To connect with Preston, head over to https://www.prestonsprinkle.com or @preston.sprinkle on IG!Get Preston's new book here: https://amzn.to/4r8U4nL Preston's podcast, Theology in the Raw: https://theologyintheraw.com/podcasts Submit a question for “Ask Han” here: https://forms.gle/qWGxyy9M5Q5N2tMz9 SUPPORT BY WORDS: https://buymeacoffee.com/bywordsMy favorite Bible studies + devotionals - HANNAHHUGHES10  for 10% off: https://thedailygraceco.com?dt_id=300773 CONNECT:hello@thehannahhughes.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehannahhughes 

Preston Sprinkle joins Levi and Jennie for a candid, hilarious, and deeply thoughtful conversation around his newest book, From Genesis to Junia: An Honest Search for What the Bible Really Says About Women in Leadership. Preston shares what sent him on a years-long, thousand-hour deep dive through Scripture, scholarship, and church history without rushing to “pick a side.” Along the way, the crew gets real about how these conversations actually land in local churches: the tension, the backlash, the nuance, and the very human emotions involved. From Jesus' surprising elevation of women, to the “problem passages” like 1 Timothy 2 and Romans 16, this episode is an invitation to slow down, stay humble, and let the Bible speak louder than the algorithms.

J.I. Packer once wrote, “What matters in life is not what you make of it, but what God makes of it for you.” That contrast becomes especially clear when it comes to money. When circumstances shift, and uncertainty rises, the quiet question surfaces: Will there be enough? Our culture tells us peace comes through self-provision—earning more, saving more, planning better. But Scripture invites us into a different posture: resting in a Father who provides. Look at the Birds: Provision Begins with Relationship In Matthew 6:26, Jesus directs our attention upward: “Look at the birds of the air…your heavenly Father feeds them.” Birds don't build financial models or stockpile reserves. Yet God sustains them. Jesus' point isn't irresponsibility—it's relationship. Behind every plan, paycheck, and effort stands a God who sees, knows, and provides. Throughout Scripture, this truth repeats like a steady drumbeat: Abraham climbs Mount Moriah in obedience, and God provides a ram (Genesis 22:13–14). The widow of Zarephath runs out of resources, and God sustains her jar of flour and jug of oil (1 Kings 17:14–16). Peter wonders how to pay the temple tax, and Jesus provides the exact coin in a fish's mouth (Matthew 17:27). From Genesis to Revelation, God's provision is precise, purposeful, and personal. Every Need, Not Every Wish Paul echoes this promise in Philippians 4:19: “My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Notice what Paul doesn't say. He doesn't promise every want, preference, or wish list. He promises to meet every need. And that supply doesn't flow from our economy, our income, or our investments—it flows from God's riches. Provision is not sourced in us. It's sourced in Him. Jesus Is Our Provision The truth goes even deeper. Jesus doesn't just provide—He is our provision. In John 6:35, He says, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger.” Peace, then, is not found in financial comfort or problem-free living. It's found in the presence of Christ. When we forget this, we drift into two familiar traps: Fear: What if there isn't enough? Self-reliance: I'll make sure there's enough. Both pull us away from trust. The Source Behind Everything We Have Scripture reminds us that God provides not only resources but the ability to obtain them. Moses tells Israel, “Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth” (Deuteronomy 8:18). Our skills, opportunities, work ethic, and even our capacity to earn—all come from Him. When that truth settles in, something shifts. Financial security stops being something we manufacture and becomes something we receive. Trusting God as provider doesn't lead to inactivity. It frees us to work, plan, save, and give with joy. Our efforts become acts of stewardship rather than self-provision. Money becomes a place of spiritual formation rather than fear. That's why Jesus teaches us to pray for “daily bread” (Matthew 6:11). Not because God lacks resources—but because our hearts need daily dependence. Daily bread cultivates daily trust. Where Are You Looking for Provision? Take a moment to ask: Am I looking to my paycheck for security? My savings? My plans for the future? Or the hand of a Father who feeds the birds and calls me His child? Whether you're in a season of abundance or a season of need, Jesus doesn't just promise provision—He gives Himself. And He invites you to trust Him day by day. When we trade fear for faith, striving for surrender, and self-reliance for dependence, we discover the deep joy of resting in a Father who sees and provides.

I've heard suggestions ranging from corporate bonds and CDs to an ETF. How should I think about investing this money? I'm 60, with a $700,000 pension lump sum, and am considering a buffered-income variable annuity for a few years before taking withdrawals. Is that a wise move? My husband and I are pastors with small 401(k)s. We're curious about crypto—can we move funds directly from a 401(k) to invest in it, and is that advisable?

Are you constantly tired… overwhelmed… running on empty? In Part 4 of our Spiritual Disciplines series, we explore the life-giving discipline of Sabbath — not as a religious rule, but as a gift from God. From Genesis to Exodus to Jesus' teaching in Matthew 12, Scripture shows us that Sabbath is woven into the rhythm of creation itself. God didn't rest because He was tired — He rested to establish a pattern for us. If you've ever: Felt burned out Struggled to slow down Wondered why vacations don't actually refresh you Believed rest feels “unproductive” This message is for you. Sabbath isn't about legalism.  It's about delight.  It's about restoration.  It's about friendship with God. The Sabbath will come for you — either as a gift… or as a consequence. Let's learn how to choose it as a blessing.

God's invitation is not limited — it's for everyone. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible reveals a God who relentlessly pursues humanity, calling us into relationship, restoration, and purpose. In this powerful sermon, Brandon Welch unpacks the heart of God as a welcoming Father, showing us that faith isn't about religious performance — it's about divine invitation. Through Scripture and real-life application, this message reveals how God consistently invites us to experience His goodness, love, and transforming grace. Whether you feel far from God or have walked with Him for years, this message will renew your understanding of His pursuit and remind you that God genuinely wants YOU.

In Holy Spirit Part 2, we go deeper into who the Holy Spirit is and why He was given. From Genesis to Pentecost, we see that God has always been inviting humanity into His life of love. Before power or gifts, the Spirit's primary purpose is to draw us into the love of the Father through the Son—and to remind us that we are deeply loved children of God.

Southside Tribe! Our brother Dr. Preston Sprinkle is back to discuss his new book, From Genesis to Junia, and the deeply debated question of women in church leadership. Preston shares about his three-and-a-half-year research journey—one that rivaled doctoral-level work—where he committed to studying not just voices that agreed with him, but the strongest arguments on the other side. Together we wrestle through Genesis, all the way to Paul's letters. This convo challenges listeners to distinguish between loving a narrative and loving the truth—and to approach controversial issues with curiosity rather than fear and assumptions. If you've ever wondered what it looks like to let Scripture speak on its own terms—even when it disrupts your theological framework—this episode invites you into that tension with grace, depth, and courage.

Who you are in Christ shapes how you live, decide, and show up every day.If you feel disconnected, unsure, or stuck striving, this message will bring clarity.Who you are in Christ is not just a theological idea—it's the foundation for identity, confidence, and spiritual growth in real life.In this episode of Free to Dream Podcast, we explore how the power of God works through identity, not performance. From Genesis to Ephesians, Scripture reveals that when identity is lost, people hide—but when identity is restored, God's power becomes active.In this episode, you'll discover:What the Bible really means by who you are in ChristWhy identity confusion leads to burnout, fear, and strivingHow the power of God operates through alignment, not effortWhat Ephesians teaches about being wrapped in ChristHow understanding your identity changes daily decisions and directionThis teaching is for anyone who wants faith that works in everyday life—not just on Sundays.When you know who you are in Christ, everything changes.

Does the Bible truly restrict women in leadership? In this thought-provoking Voxology Podcast episode, Mike Geary, Susie Lind, and Preston Sprinkle wrestle with this deeply significant theological question. Drawing from Preston's upcoming book, *From Genesis to Junia: What the Bible Really Says About Women in Leadership*, they explore the historical, cultural, and biblical contexts that shape complementarian and egalitarian debates. Are women called to lead, preach, and teach in the church? What role does cultural context play in interpreting scripture? With a blend of personal stories, rigorous scholarship, and honest dialogue, the hosts unpack passages like 1 Timothy 2 and Ephesians 5, illuminating how interpretations of authority, headship, and agency have shaped the Church's approach to women in ministry. Susie shares her lived experience as a pastor navigating these challenges, while Preston dives into the exegetical work that informed his book. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about how faith intersects with justice, theology, and cultural issues. Join the conversation as the hosts emphasize Jesus' inclusive teachings and challenge the commodification of women within religious structures.

For over 3 1/2 years, I researched what the Bible says about women in church leadership. I didn't have a conclusion when I started out. I just wanted to understand what the Bible says about the topic and sort through all the scholarly debates on all sides. I write about all of this in my new book From Genesis to Junia: An Honest Search for What the Bible Really Says about Women in Leadership. And I sum up my book in this epiosde.

In Week 5 of the Gates of Hell series, we explore The Gate of Temptation and how spiritual battles begin long before visible sin. Standing at Caesarea Philippi in Matthew 16, Jesus declared war on the gates of hell and promised victory for His Church. But one of the most subtle gates believers walk through is temptation. From Genesis 3 to Jesus' victory in the wilderness in Matthew 4, we see how the enemy still whispers, "Did God really say?" This message teaches how temptation works, why shame and hiding follow sin, and how submitting to God and resisting the devil leads to freedom, power, and breakthrough.

In this message we examine the state of families and marriages in American today and discuss the importance of having a marriage based on a Biblical worldview. We look at the foundation of a Biblical Marriage and talk about why marriages dissolve, crumble and fall apart so quickly in today's culture and what we can do to strengthen, restore and redeem marriage. We also examine the 5 most prominent reasons that marriages fall apart and how to guard and protect against them. Regardless of the condition of your marriage or how long or short you have been married, these principles and ideas serve as a reminder that all marriages could use some help. From Genesis 2:18-23, Ephesians 5. Thank you for listening to our podcast and we would love for you to subscribe to our page and share with others.

Apostle Neville Goldman unveils how the mantle of the Holy Spirit moves when blood, separation, and power align. From Genesis to Calvary, from Elijah to Pentecost, he reveals the divine pattern that turns chaos into order and activates purpose in every believer. The mantle is not hype or position, it is covenant, consecration, and fire. Through testimony, Scripture, and bold prophetic declaration, this message calls a generation to discover their because and step into supernatural authority. The blood speaks. The Spirit moves. The assignment awaits. Step into it.

Fasting and Breakthrough in the BibleScripture: Joel 2:12—“Turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning.”Fasting and Breakthrough in the Bible. From Genesis to the New Testament, fasting appears at critical moments—moments of crisis, transition, repentance, warfare, and direction. Fasting was never a ritual for show; it was a response of humility and desperation before God.Accept Jesus Today: https://youtube.com/shorts/bIwAUlz7Kg4?si=BNOhv44iLWIR4eVJIf you would like to accept Jesus into your heart today, pray this simple prayer:****God, I have sinned against You.

John 1:12 says, But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. If you just prayed this prayer to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, I welcome you to the family of God.

Is there one specific plan God has for you? What if you miss it? In this message, we explore the difference between our general calling (who we are in Christ) and our specific callings (how we live that out). From Genesis to Jesus to Paul's letters, we see that calling is less about chasing importance and more about being faithful. Your importance doesn't come from what you do — it comes from whose you are. We'd love to connect with you!

Deception is real, and it's everywhere. From Genesis to now, the enemy's using the same tactics: twisting words, planting doubts, and making lies sound like truth. But you're not powerless! In this podcast, Ptr. Joey Crisostomo reveals how to recognize spiritual deception and shield yourself, your family, and the church. You can win this battle with the power of God's Word and the Holy Spirit. Tune in now to 'How to Avoid Spiritual Deception.'

From Genesis and on through the Bible we have evidences of what God in His Omnipresence (and Omniscience, and Omnipotence) does in the lives of individuals and with all creation.

    God created men and women equal in value but with complementary roles. From Genesis 2, women are described as a “helper fit for him,” a role that is honorable and not inferior, reflecting how God helps His people. Men carry primary responsibility for leadership aimed at human flourishing, while women strengthen and complement that work in the home and the church. Both are essential, called to grow, serve, and rely on God's grace as they pursue healthy families, churches, and communities.

In week two of Unshakable, we shift from dealing with offense to building unity that lasts. “United on Purpose” shows that strong relationships don't happen by accident—they're sustained through intentional pursuit, not just good intentions. From Genesis to practical, everyday habits, we learn what it means to cling, pursue, and stay connected in a world [...]

In today's Tent Talk episode, Nancy shares a raw and revelatory message on the duality of our days and the deep work God is doing in His people. Drawing from decades of walking with the Lord, she speaks on the separation of man's goodness from Christ Himself, the futility of self-effort, and the need for total dependence on the finished work of the cross. From Genesis 3 to 1 John 2, Isaiah 4, and Colossians 1, Nancy challenges us to release every stopgap method and fully yield to the fire that exposes, judges, and protects. God is not asking for improvement—He's initiating a holy separation and reordering His house for His name's sake. Are you willing to be deeply dealt with, so you can deeply dwell in Him? Here we go.

Pastor Levi Matteson talks about how Lot was rescued by mercy, but then drifted back toward Sodom. Mercy can be misread as permission, but God's patience is not permission, rather it's an invitation to repent and a call for His people to intercede. From Genesis 18:16-33, including God moves toward the problem (v.16), God speaks before He acts (v. 17-19), Outcry means sin has victims. (v. 20), God's justice is careful, not impulsive (v. 21), Abraham stands before the Lord (v. 22), Bold prayer anchored in God's character (v. 23-25), God welcomes the intercessor (v. 26), Courage with humility (v. 27), 50 down to 10 (v. 28-32), and Tension remains (v. 33). This episode of the Evangel Houghton podcast is a Sunday message from Evangel Community Church, Houghton, Michigan, February 1, 2026.

In this episode of To Be the Church, we talk about why context and genre matter when interpreting Scripture. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible includes historical narrative, poetry, wisdom literature, letters, and apocalyptic imagery—and each genre calls for a different approach.We explore how understanding the original audience, authorial intent, and literary style helps prevent common misreadings, avoids unnecessary conflicts with science, and brings clarity to difficult passages—especially in books like Genesis and Revelation.Contact us at podcast@tobethechurch.com

God reveals himself to us in his word. One characteristic we repeatedly see in Scripture is God's faithfulness. From Genesis to Revelation, it's promises made and promises kept. While he remains faithful, humans remain largely impatient in waiting for those promises to be fulfilled. Entrust yourself to the LORD and wait patiently for him to work and fulfill. He will.

Jacob — Transformed by God's Touch | Pastor Verna DeHartIn this message, Pastor Verna DeHart unpacks the transformational story of Jacob a man marked by striving until an encounter with God brought surrender, renaming, and true identity.Recorded during The Heroes and Great Stories of the Bible series, this teaching reveals how God often meets us in moments of fear, transition, and weakness not perfection. Jacob's wrestling at the Jabbok River reminds us that when we stop relying on our own strength, God reshapes who we are.You'll hear insights on: Striving versus trusting God's timing How confession opens the door to transformation Why God allows wrestling to break self-reliance What it means to walk differently after encountering God Key Declaration:“I bring my real self to You, God. I release striving. I receive transformation.”

Joseph — From the Pit to the Palace | Pastor Verna DeHartJoseph's story reminds us that God's promise never changes, but the process shapes us.In this message from The Heroes and Great Stories of the Bible series, Pastor Verna DeHart walks through Joseph's journey of dreams, betrayal, faithfulness, and ultimate elevation. Though Joseph endured the pit, slavery, and prison, God was with him in every season, refining his character and preparing him for purpose.You'll hear how: God gives dreams long before promotion Betrayal cannot cancel God's plan Favor grows quietly in hidden places Obedience prepares us for authority God uses every season to position us for purpose This episode is a reminder that:You may be delayed—but you are not denied.You may be hidden—but you are not forgotten.You may be tested—but you are being prepared.Key Declaration:“What God has spoken over my life will come to pass.”

Can you trust that viral “Bible connection” you just saw on TikTok? In this episode, Matt Swale, author of Terms, Themes, and Thesis, joins Dr. Dru Johnson to discuss how biblical allusions really work—and why we need better instincts and better tools when interpreting Scripture. Swale wrote the book to help lay readers and undergraduates navigate the exciting (and sometimes overhyped) world of intertextuality: how one passage of Scripture evokes another, often subtly, and with profound rhetorical effect. They explore his criteria for spotting allusions—rare terms, thematic coherence, and rhetorical fit—while affirming the emotional and spiritual value of hunting for connections. From Genesis 3 and Luke 24 to Judges 19 and Genesis 19, Swale shows how true allusions enrich our understanding, while false positives can mislead or confuse. Swale also urges humility: “You want to make sure it's real,” he says. “False positives are part of the process.” He encourages listeners to use tools like reference Bibles, read in community, and learn from scholars—while warning against treating academic access as priestly gatekeeping.

Sermon Summary:We explored how our past profoundly shapes our present in this third week of our Emotionally Healthy Spirituality series. The core idea: to move into a healthy, mature future with God, we must take an honest look at our past.Science confirms what Scripture has always shown us. Research in epigenetics reveals that trauma and experiences can leave chemical markers on our DNA that get passed down through generations. The Bible shows us this same reality through Abraham's family line. From Genesis 12 through Joseph's story, we see a repeating pattern of deception, favoritism, and self-protection passed from father to son across four generations.Exodus 34:6-7 introduces the generational judgment principle, but here's the beautiful truth: while sin's consequences may extend three or four generations, God's steadfast love extends to thousands. The scale isn't even close. His mercy outweighs every pattern, every wound, every inherited tendency.The path forward requires five steps: see your past honestly (tools like genograms can help), own both the good and bad, bring others into the journey, allow God to redeem what's broken, and work to change by the Spirit's power. Joseph's story shows us how this transformation happens. He faced his past honestly, acknowledged the evil done to him, but invited God to redeem it for good. He became the one who broke the generational cycle.We can be that person in our family line. By God's grace, the patterns that have run for generations can end with us. We stand in the gap for those who came before and those who will come after.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

Why do followers of Jesus talk about Him everywhere they go?In this sermon from Acts 1:1–11, Pastor Clayton teaches that witnessing isn't reserved for professionals or pastors—it's what every believer was created and re-created to do. From Genesis to the birth of the Church, God's plan has always been to fill the earth with His image and His story.Jesus tells His disciples they won't receive a timeline or a kingdom—but they will receive power. Through the Holy Spirit, ordinary people are empowered to witness to an extraordinary truth: Jesus is alive, and His resurrection changes everything. This message challenges us to shift from focusing on what faith gives us to living as Spirit-empowered witnesses who carry the gospel to our everyday world.Scriptures Referenced:Acts 1:1–11Acts 2:1–4Genesis 1:27–28Genesis 9:1Genesis 12:1–3Keywords:Acts 1 sermon, Holy Spirit power, Christian witness, baptism of the Holy Spirit, Book of Acts explained, evangelism, sharing your faith, resurrection of Jesus, Spirit-filled life, mission of the churchYou were created in God's image—and re-created in Christ—to be a witness.

We confront a growing cultural contempt toward men and map a better path: a biblical vision where male strength is foundational, sacrificial, and aimed at others' flourishing. From Genesis to Joseph, we argue for equal dignity, real difference, and headship as responsibility, not privilege.Thank you for listening! Please visit us at www.faith-pca.org.
