  • Acts 12 - Enduring Hardships Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 5, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,043 views

    Be prepared for challenges. We can expect hardships in life. We can stay on course by praying.

    The moment the disciples put their faith in Jesus, they were declaring war against the devil. They have chosen to make a stand for the truth. • The authorities and the people come against what they preach, sometimes out of selfish reasons, sometimes out of intolerance, and at other times, ...read more

  • What's Our Purpose? Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jul 8, 2013
     | 7,308 views

    The Church at Pine Level must identify itself with the Church at Antioch. We must have a clear purpose and do whatever it takes to serve Christ. With God's leadership, our new purpose will be: "Connecting people with Jesus and each other."

    What’s our Purpose? Acts 13:1-13 Introduction When this series first started we discussed the imp of being a biblical church -- The church of Acts is a tremendous road model for us to examine / follow -- When it comes to following Christ, there is really NO more perfect example The ...read more

  • Wild Praying Series

    Do you believe in praying bold and wild prayers? Do you believe that if you asked God to do something "impossible" that He would? Frankly, the story in Acts 12 doesn't look like these folks believed that. Did God look down on them for their doubt?

    OPEN: Back in 1540 Martin Luther was very distressed. His good friend and assistant, Friedrich Myconius, was sick and was expected to die within a short time. From his bed Myconius wrote a tender farewell letter to Luther. When Luther received the message, he immediately sent back this reply: ...read more

  • Prayer

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Aug 14, 2013
     | 13,213 views

    Acts 12 has both answered and unanswered prayers within it. We tend to like it better when we get a "yes" from heaven, but God might actually be doing greater things for us when the answer is "no."

    When is the last time you prayed earnestly for something? What do you expect when you pray? What do you pray for most? I think about the family of a small child who is dying in a cancer ward. They pray night and day and are joined in prayer by hundreds of others asking God to spare the life of ...read more

  • God's Guidance And Fasting

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Aug 14, 2013
     | 5,050 views

    How does the church serve God and seek His will? How do we hear His voice for our present day needs? Certainly scripture is the primary tool to know God's will, but how we apply it takes wisdom and Spirit led help. How do we discover those?

    The Church in Antioch – the first place where the disciples were called Christians – was a team building church. Earlier in Acts 11 we hear of how this church began and how the gospel began to spread outside the borders of Israel into the Gentile world as certain brave souls began ...read more

  • Antioch

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Apr 3, 2014
     | 2,650 views

    We need to like our church because it has transformed us, redeemed us from the pit of sin, washed away our sins and curse, has taught us the Bible and the ways of God.

    Antioch- Acts 13:1-‘Now in the church that was at Antioch there were certain prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul..’ Psalm 84:10”For a day in your courts is better than a ...read more

  • God Is In The Detours Too

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 9, 2015
     | 9,274 views

    Life is full of surprises. With observation, we see that the Holy Spirit is as much in the detours as He is in the plans we carefully map out. Two passages in the New Testament & one in the Old demonstrate the truth of this insight.

    GOD IS IN THE DETOURS TOO Prov. 3:5 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: DECISIONS 1. Harry and Kitty are celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. 2. Max and Betty said, “You must let us in on your secret - how have you managed to stay married for so long?" 3. Harry turns to Kitty and asks, "OK for ...read more

    Church leaders were not settled with what the Lord had done there at Antioch, because they believed the Lord had greater things for them and the Antioch church to do.

    Contributed by Jonathan Russell on Mar 17, 2011
    based on 16 ratings
     | 20,874 views

    Acts 12 records another attempt of Satan to defeat God and his plan for the church. However, God cannot be defeated. This sermon explains why.

    * Concept of being undefeated: a rare occurrence - Only 1 NFL team; 7 NCAA basketball teams; no NBA or MLB teams * Being undefeated symbolizes that no one was able to be better, play harder, or accomplish more * It's practically impossible to always be undefeated: the longer you play, the less ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Russell on Mar 17, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,009 views

    The church in Antioch was filled with "real" Christians and shows us what a biblical church looks like.

    * The book of Acts holds up a mirror to our church today so we can get an accurate picture of how well we are functioning as a biblical church. * Many outward things about the church has changed in 2000 years, but what the church is and what we are to do has not...nor will it ever. * Yet a ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 13,340 views

    This sermon looks at how God honours our prayers and dedication even when we are spiritually dry. When we do not 'feel' like serving him but serve him anyway. It encourages perseverance, stretching out, prayer and faith that God can do 'big things'.

    Perseverance in a dry place John Ortberg from Menlo Park Presbyterian Church recalls A man I'll call Paul (because that's actually his name) told me he recently started going to church. In his mid-seventies, with no faith background, he woke up one morning with a sudden urge to hear the pope, ...read more
