Love Like Jesus - Luke 6:27-36

God calls us to love the unlovable, even our enemies. The Bible provides us with many examples of people who were willing to do just that.

Courage Under Fire - Acts 4:1-22

Peter and John serve as examples to us, in the face of adversity to be confident and courageous. They continued to speak in the name of Jesus, no matter what persecution they would have to endure. May we, like them, in the power of Jesus name, courageously live with hearts on fire for God.

God Has A Plan - Matthew 2:19, 21

God has always had a plan to save all humankind. He brought forth His Son to fulfill that plan which included you. He came so you could know Him and the life He has designed for you to live now and for all eternity. You needn't fear the unknown, He is sovereignly in control and He is Immanuel, God with you.

The Power Of His Name - Acts 3:12-26 / Part 2

In these verses Peter gives one of the greatest sermons in all of the New Testament. He begins by stating that the Gospel rests in history. The long-awaited Messiah has already come. God made this promise to Abraham, Moses affirmed it, Samuel the first prophet and every prophet following made the same declaration. Just as Peter spoke to those who were present that day, his words continue to speak to us today. Open your ears and eyes, the Messiah has come, to be your Savior.

The Power Of His Name - Acts 3:1-11 - Part 1

God gives us opportunities to make a difference in people's lives and the power to make a difference. We must be willing to take the time to see the divine appointments He places in front of us, just as He did for Peter and John. Don't pass by or pass up the God-given appointments you are given. You might be the answer to someone's prayer and the one to bring about a miraculous change in their life through the power of the Holy Spirit within you.

What A Biblical Church Looks Like - Acts 2:37-47

The Early Church in the second chapter of Acts shows us what God intends His church to look like today. We need to do a heart check to determine if we make church all about us. Or do we, like those of the Acts 2 church display the marks of true followers of Christ? Are we giving ourselves to the teaching of God's Word, prayer, fellowship with other believers and are we consistent in sharing the blessings and goodness of God with those in need? Hopefully, we will intentionally choose to make church all about Him.

Growing Into Spiritual Strength - Acts 2:14-37

Peter gives one of the most powerful and persuasive sermons in all of the New Testament in the second chapter of Acts. His message given two thousand years ago, encourages us today, to be strong witnesses that take a stand, to be knowledgeable of the Word and to be bold in proclaiming Christ.

Hearts On Fire - Acts 2:1-13

The same Spirit that came upon the 120 in power at Pentecost is the same Spirit that resides in us. The Holy Spirit set their hearts on fire that they might spread the Gospel to those who were lost. Today, the Holy Spirit will set our hearts on fire that we might spread the Gospel to those who are lost. Is your heart open, desiring for Him to set your heart on fire, if so expect to be ignited!

The Prayer Meeting That Changed Everything - Acts 1:9-26

God chooses us so He can empower and use us. Perfection does not qualify us to be used by Him but dependence on His power to be demonstrated in and through us.

The Mission Continues - Acts 1:1-11

God's mission for the first century believers continues to be the same mission for us today. We are to be His witnesses faithfully and boldly proclaiming the Gospel.
