    Does Jesus still call and empower believers to do bold and amazing things in His name, like healing the sick, raising the dead, and casting out demons? Does this passage only apply to the first apostles, or can it be applied to us?

    I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this is Part 1 of a two-part message. I want to begin by saying that I was raised in a small country church with a pastor who loved the Lord and His people, and proclaimed only the basics, like sin, repentance, salvation, ...read more

    This sermon talks about a major hindrance to changing our sinful habits which is the fear of change itself. The apostle Paul is an example of man who fought change. "Kick against the goads?"

    Have you ever wondered why some organizations seem to languish in mediocrity? In the early days of the church, the apostles learned how to delegate responsibilities so they were not sidetracked from their major ministries.

    The apostles were blessed by God with great growth in their fellowship as a result of their Spirit applied solutions to a prickly problem. Dr. Luke wrote, Then the word of God spread and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem.

    1. Remember that there are plenty of cycles of ups and downs in every relationship, ministry and group.
