Sermon Category: Unsettled

This Sunday we will conclude our current series and celebrate the Lord’s supper. We will also have a special guest that you cannot miss! I am looking forward to sharing how the Lord is using our church to bring the gospel to the ends of the earth!

This coming Sunday we will continue our sermon series in Acts 11:19-30. It took time for the church to mature and fully embrace the Great Commission. Ironically, it was not the Church of Jerusalem but the church in Antioch that carried the torch to the ends of the earth. Please join us as we become witnesses of how the Lord uses this church to raise a new generation of disciple-makers!

Our message this coming Sunday is from Acts 11: 1-18. Sometimes churches can become people's cliques. But God wants the church to invite all people to join Jesus Christ in a life-long, life-changing, and life-giving journey. To be a clique is to be against the very reason our church exists. In this passage, we will see how God spoke to the church to let her know he has room for those who we like and for those who we do not.

Our message this coming Sunday is from Acts 9:32-10:45 “Among Saints and Sinners.” Peter’s ministry sometimes took him to places where things were familiar and he was able to champion the gospel. Other times, to places where he was clueless and he seemed to get in the way of the gospel. In this passage, we will see God pushing his people way beyond the limits of their comfort to break down the walls of separation between Jews and Gentiles and usher a new paradigm to create a church for all nations and all generations.

Our message this coming Sunday from Acts 9 will be entitled “Blind and Brainwashed.” It takes a community of people who share Christ’s compassionate heart to minister to those who are spiritually blind. God wants to use our story to help others realize their need for salvation. As we journey through Paul’s conversion we will see God’s miraculous intervention to give us a new vision for his glory!

We will continue our messages on the book of Acts chapters 8-12 with our new sermon series “Unsettled: Venturing beyond the limits of our comfort zone.” When we venture beyond the limits of our comfort, we will inevitably find people who are very different from us. When the gospel moved from Jerusalem to Samaria, the first disciples found people living in ways that were contrary to everything they stood for. It would be easier to isolate and live in their Christian bubble but that is not what the gospel is all about. When we go beyond the limits of our PREFERENCE, we discover that God is already at work calling those who are under the control of the enemy to turn to Him.
