    The Early Church experienced growth in numbers, and growth in depth and growth in community. It also experienced a growth in suffering. Jesus said blessed are those who suffer and are persecuted because of him! This talk encourages the church to proclaim

    Although I’ve only seen part of it on YouTube there is a humbling episode from the 1961 British film called, ‘Whistle down the Wind’. A group of Lancashire children have experienced the death of a kitten. They had prayed fervently that the little cat would get well, but instead it died. They ...read more

    The Praying Church Series

    The church did not pray for the easing of persecution, but for greater courage and more miracles. They recognizes God’s sovereignty and pray for God’s will to be fulfilled.

    CONTEXT • Peter and John healed a crippled beggar in Chapter 3. It drawn the attention of the crowd. • Peter took the opportunity to preach Jesus and forgiveness of sin in Jesus’ Name. At least 5000 men were saved (4:4). • The priests and religious leaders were not happy that they were preaching ...read more

    There is no name like the name of Jesus. This message shows the power of the name of Jesus in the early church and reminds us that that power has not faded. Jesus still heals, He still saves and He is still on HIs throne. 5 main points in the message.

    “The Powerful Name of Jesus” Acts 4:13-31 These men who stood here and witnessed the courage of Peter and John were now in a huge dilemma. No matter which way they turned they were trapped. They couldn’t deny the miracle that this lame man had been healed because he was standing ...read more

    What Do We Do When Control Is Taken Away?

    Contributed by Doug Koehler on May 2, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,965 views

    We like to be in control, some of us need to be in control but, when that control is taken away by sinful man or others, we need to look to the one who is always in full control.

    Acts 4:23-33 I suspect that most all of the conflicts and battles of life boil down to issues of control. Republicans want control of the congress and Democrats don’t want to give it up. Israelis want to control Palestinians and Palestinians resist. Sunnis and Shiites fight for control of Iraq. ...read more

    In Acts 4 we see a church alive and on fire. But it is also a church under attack. How did the first believers cope with opposition?

    Introduction Once upon a time, an atheist lived in a small town. The atheist wasn’t a bad man, he just didn’t believe. He wasn’t interested in church… and there was only one in the area. It was cold and dead. More of a social club for the deceased. One day the church building caught on fire. The ...read more
