    The Praying Church

     | 25,241 views

    We need to be convinced of the NEED to pray, understand the POWER of prayer, seize the OPPORTUNITY to pray and have FAITH in God when we pray.

    In the book of Acts, we see a common sight – the church at prayer. • Not a few disciples, but the whole community of believers praying together • This was a unique sight, because in the Gospel we hardly read of the disciples gathering to pray. • We saw Jesus praying alone, most of the time. And ...read more

    A Feast For Worms

    Contributed by Richard White on Nov 13, 2008

    Gleaned from several sermons at this website. Pride, envy, jealousy are hungry worms that eat us from the inside out.

    A feast for Worms. Acts 12:18-25 Point: We have heard it said “Pride comes before the fall.” It literally happens in this scene. The time is about 46 AD. This chronology might fit between the time Paul goes to Antioch and sending the famine relief to Jerusalem. Agrippa grew up in the Imperial ...read more

    Prayer is the tool that connects us to the power of God. We do not tap it for many reasons.

    Sept 7 – Living the Supernatural Life – Part 3 - Untapped Power Last week something remarkable happened during our worship service. We learned about the power of calling upon God to intervene in situations – because God has limited Himself in this world to the prayers of His people. Then, we ...read more

    Acts reminds us that we also need to be praying with others to see God�s power at work.

    Some people believe you have to be ignorant to be a Christian, but a very intelligent man accepted Christ in Acts 13.

    Intelligent Design: Is Christianity smart? Acts 13:4-12 Even smart people believe in God! Do you consider yourself smart? Why are why not?

     | 6,408 views

    The Bible assumes that God does speak to those who seek Him. The context in which He speaks is often, almost exclusively, as people worship.

    “Now there were in the church at Antioch prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a member of the court of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, ‘Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the ...read more
