    We must guard against the worldly pressures and fears that threaten us to "tone down" the Gospel message.

    FEAR! A WORD THAT IS ONLY 4-LETTERS, BUT ONE THAT CAN REAP DEVESTATING CONSEQUENCES. FEAR IS SO POWERFUL THAT IT CAN PARALYZE, CONTROLL, AND MANIPULATE US. FEAR CAN COMPELS US TO DO IRRESPONSIBLE THINGS AND CAN EVEN HINDER US FROM LIVING RESPONSIBLY AND LIVING FRUITLESS LIVES. THIS IS WHY I ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 21, 2025
     | 195 views

    This sermon explores the Apostle Paul's declaration that he is "pure from the blood of all men" by examining the terrifying weight of spiritual accountability and the costly faithfulness required to have a clear conscience.

    Getting What You Ask For From God

    Contributed by R. Joseph Owles on May 6, 2012
     | 6,466 views

    Based on the Lectionary readings for the 5th Sunday in Easter (Acts 9:26-31; 1 John 3:18-24; John 15:1-8). Jesus says that we can ask anything from God and receive it. 1 John explains it, and Acts shows the consequence.

    Jesus said to his disciples: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower. He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit. You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you. Remain in me, as I remain in ...read more

     | 1,607 views

    The Holy Spirit is the central actor in Acts. He is the voice of the invisible Jesus who now reigns in heaven. We can learn to listen to His voice. Acts 13-15 provides suggestions how to begin "mission conversations". What was the "common ground" Paul used?

    Building The Church By Serving Each Other Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Sep 11, 2024
     | 1,713 views

    Though the word “serve” isn’t explicitly mentioned in Acts 2:42-47, the early church served each other. As Jesus demonstrated service by washing His disciples' feet, we are to serve one another through our gifts, tangible acts of help, prayer, hospitality, and generosity.

    Timothy (Paul's Disciple) Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 3, 2022
     | 3,599 views

    This young man was so closely associated with the Apostle Paul that they shared his thoughts and work. However, we must assume the more profound knowledge of him conveyed by the Acts and Epistles and by the letters of counsel addressed by St. Paul to him personally.

    The Cultural Impact Of Worldview & Apologetics

    Here at the beginning of the twenty-first century, Apologetics as an evangelistic endeavor and intellectual theological outreach finds itself in something of a paradox.
