A Spirit Filled Church Joe Gordon  

Date: May 27, 2026Series: One OffPassage: Acts 2:42-47Preacher: Chris Frye

Music is fascinating. Singing lowers cortisol, raises oxytocin, releases endorphins, and bonds strangers faster than any other group activity. God didn't invent singing for humans - He built it into the human body and wired it into every culture on earth. And Paul says: when you are filled with the Spirit, you sing. In Ephesians 5:19–21, Pastor David walks through what a Spirit-filled church actually sounds and looks like - four movements that are anything but random. A sound. An absolute. A name. An order. And at the end of it all is this: when the church sings, gives thanks, and arranges itself in humility - we are not doing something small. We are rehearsing the future. Every Sunday. Every song. Every act of gratitude. Every moment of submission. We are practicing now what all creation will one day confess. In this message: Why God built singing into the human body before He ever commanded it The horizontal and vertical directions of worship - and why Paul gives us both at once Why Christian thanksgiving is not denial. It is defiance. What hupotassō (submission) actually means - and why Jesus is its clearest definition Key Scriptures: Ephesians 5:19–21 • Psalm 19; 96; 148 • Job 38 • Exodus 15 • Matthew 26:30 • Acts 16; 4:12 • Revelation 5 • 1 Thessalonians 5:18 • Romans 10:13 • Philippians 2

Are You In a Spirit-Filled Church? | Christ For YouJohn 16:8–14 | PentecostA man walked into Zion, sat through the service, and left with a verdict: the Holy Spirit isn't here. No raised hands. No tears. No electricity in the room. Just a Bible being read, doctrine being preached, and sinners sitting quietly in pews.But was he right?Is the Holy Spirit a force, an energy, a feeling — or something else entirely? Why did Pentecostalism begin only 120 years ago, and how did it become the default Christianity for millions? What happens to your faith when the feeling fades? And who controls your access to God if that access runs through your emotions?What does Jesus actually say the Holy Spirit does? Why does the Spirit refuse to point to Himself? What does it mean that He doesn't just inform you — He declares something to you? How do you know if the Holy Spirit is working in you? And what do children receiving their first communion prove about whether the Spirit is here?Why does the Spirit come first with the Law? And how does the cross change everything?For those who are sick, aging, and dying — when the feelings are gone and you have no strength left — is the Holy Spirit still there? Who is speaking for you when you no longer have words?In this Pentecost sermon, Pastor Rojas answers every one of those questions from Scripture.Subscribe & Share:Spotify: Christ For YouPortuguês: Cristo Para VocêWebsite: ZionWG.orgLooking for a Lutheran Church near you?Support the preaching of God's Word.

God can show up in many different ways. At Pentecost the Holy Spirit showed up as wind and fire.

What does it mean to be filled with the Holy Spirit? In this Pentecost sermon, we explore how the Spirit is not reserved for a select few, but is God's gift for every believer. Through the power and presence of the Holy Spirit, we are strengthened to follow Christ, overcome sin and fear, and walk into the life and purpose God has prepared for us from the very beginning.

Sermon for the Day of Pentecost (A) Sunday, 24 May A+D 2066 Rev. Matthew D. Ruesch

Does God care about how you eat?The Bible speaks often of how God's People break bread with one another. In a broken world, how Christians eat their meals is to look so distinct that it put the Gospel on display and drives worship in our hearts. Join us this Sunday as we see how in Acts 2:42 the Spirit-Filled Church breaks bread together!

In Acts 2:42 the Bible begins telling us how the Spirit-Filled Church filled their time. But just what was the “Apostles' teaching” that they devoted themselves to? Be sure to join us this Sunday morning as we explore God's design for His Church together!

In this powerful message, Guest Speaker Pastor Vinu Paul encourages King's Church to pursue a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit as we continue our STRONGER 2.0 series.Drawing from Acts 1:8, Pastor Vinu reminds us that the Christian life is not meant to be lived in our own strength. Jesus told His disciples to wait for the promise of the Father — the Holy Spirit — because true power for life and ministry comes through Him. The same Spirit that was present at creation, empowered the early church, and raised Jesus from the dead is still at work today.Throughout Scripture, we see that God uses ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things. The disciples were not the most qualified, confident, or impressive individuals, yet after being filled with the Holy Spirit, they became bold witnesses who helped change the world.This message reminds us that:• The Holy Spirit empowers believers to live beyond their natural ability• God's work is accomplished not by human strength, but by His Spirit• The Holy Spirit strengthens families, leaders, and the Church• God can fill every empty area of our lives with His presence and power• Breakthrough, healing, and transformation are possible through the Spirit of GodPastor Vinu also shares the biblical story of the widow's oil from 2 Kings 4, encouraging us to bring our empty places before God. When we surrender what feels insufficient, God multiplies what we place in His hands.Whether you feel spiritually tired, uncertain, or in need of renewal, this message is an invitation to experience the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit in every area of life.Bring your empty vessel — God is ready to fill it.SUBSCRIBE and get the latest messages: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVIzzCy3Z9Zsk0GwAH-yJ7g?sub_confirmation=1Watch this:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5De6-FwIKq4&t=1sTo support this ministry and help us continue to reach people click here: http://kingschurchkc.com/giveWe are a movement for all people to find and follow Jesus Christ.——Stay ConnectedWebsite: www.kingschurchkc.comKings Church Facebook: Facebook.com/kingschurchkcKings Church Instagram: Instagram.com/kingschurchkc#kingschurch #faith #Christianity #kansascity #onlinechurch #churchonline #hope #churchesinkansascity

When Paul instructs the Ephesian church to be filled with the Spirit, what exactly does that mean?

Vital Signs of a Spirit-Filled ChurchActs 2:42-47Teacher: Pastor Tommy BaileyDate: March 1, 2026In Acts 2:42-47, Luke pauses the whirlwind narrative of the early church to pull back the curtain on the ordinary, day-to-day life of a community transformed by the Spirit of God. What he reveals are the vital signs of a church that had come alive. A people hungry for God's Word, bound together in deep fellowship, radiating with worship of God, and devoted to prayer. Right in the middle of a culture known for its moral decay and lust for power, this peculiar band of believers lived in a way that was both strange and compelling to the watching world.Join Pastor Tommy as we explore what it looks like when the Holy Spirit shapes a community from the inside out. Their devotion was the natural overflow of hearts that had been cut to the core by the gospel of Jesus. The same Spirit who set that young church ablaze is still doing His transforming work today.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Rev. Clay Wooten

In this episode of The Pursuit, James Griffin sits down with pastor and church planter Rob Wilton to unpack Acts 2:42–47 and what it truly means to be a spirit-filled church. The conversation goes beyond the surface of a popular passage to explore what genuine devotion to God's Word looks like in a screen-saturated, post-Christian culture.Rob and James discuss the difference between the church gathered and the church scattered, why community is non-negotiable for the Christian life, whether signs and wonders still have a place in the local church today, and how biblical generosity is nothing like socialism. The episode closes with a compelling challenge: what would it look like if the local church pursued a day-by-day movement of salvation — not just a big Sunday moment?Subscribe for more messages and conversations that will help you know and follow Jesus.SHOW NOTESThese notes are packed with key insights and scripture to help you know and follow Jesus – https://mycpcc.com/notes167To submit a question, send us a DM on Instagram or Facebook.Crosspoint City Church exists to relentlessly pursue those far from God to help them know and follow Jesus.

Tune in as Pastor Seth Wetter from Calvary Chapel Fargo unpacks Ephesians chapter 1 for us with a message titled, “Sprit Filled Church”.

Yes!  You are in!  It's that time of year again.  I went back to the Spirit Filled Mountain Top Men's Camp and God blessed me with some new Hope stories to share.  Wow!  So first up, meet Franky.  He has a power story to share, here you go...Thanks again Brother Franky!  The first to boldly step up that weekend!  Life Church in Visalia, CA.  You are a good tree producing good fruit.  Sent up 33 brothers this last round.  Special shout out also to Spirit Filled Church out of Indio, CA.  Pastor Jose, Matthew, Georgie, brothers Mike C, Andy and the rest of a crew.  What a blessing and also another good tree producing good fruit.Back to Franky.  Could you do that?  Are you ready to share the reason why you have Hope?  1 Peter 3:15?  Absolutely epic.Some of you are thinking, well, my story isn't as dramatic as Franky's.  Don't think that way.  Also be careful if you say your story is boring, I used to say that.  Then God made my story a lot more interesting...aka in other words challenging.  Back to Franky.  Think about where he was.  And where he is today.  Back to my favorite rhetorical questions:  Does this Broken Planet need more Hope or Hopelessness?  More Function of dysfuntion?We have the answers to society's ills. Problem is many of you don't want to accept them.  For the answers are in the Word.  Of course, skeptics can debate God.  Yet they can't argue Franky's story.  Nor Rogelio's or Paul's or Daniel's or Richard's stories from last year.  Results are results.  Good fruit.Share what works.  Special thanks for sharing this podcast of Hope when worthy.  Ending on a prayer note...

As we wrap up our series, The Spirit Filled Church, Pastor Bob explores how to finish well in our spiritual journey, drawing from Acts 20 and the Apostle Paul's emotional farewell to the Ephesians, emphasizing the importance of holding to the Gospel, remaining faithful through life's challenges, protecting the truth, and living generously for a lasting legacy.

Join Pastor Cameron as he shares how the power to witness and do missions comes through the anointing of the Holy Spirit. We can go into all the world through the leading of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit!
