Let It Be Known

Contributed by Mark Lindsey on Jun 19, 2023

When you receive good news, you want to let it be known to others. Every engaged girl shows off her engagement ring. Gender reveal parties announce a newborn is coming. What better news to share than the good news of God's love shown through Christ? Peter let it be known on Pentecost.

“Let It Be Known” Acts 2 In Acts 2, we see the birth of the Church on the Day of Pentecost. This small band of disciples of Jesus had endured Jesus crucified on the Cross. The one they believed to be the Messiah had been killed. They thought it was over, then they heard the news: Jesus is alive! ...read more

Now, I don’t know if you’ve ever hooked a water moccasin...

What Now?

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Nov 15, 2023

Did you read something new? Familiar passage with new eyes? I hope you did?

On the Sunday following Resurrection Sunday, I expressed my concern of how we’ve had this climactic week, then we go back to “business as usual”. I didn’t realize until this week, that we see this very thing in Acts. Our key passage today will be in Acts 2:1-4, but I want us to begin in Acts ...read more

Expecting Miracles

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 8, 2023

We are not unsuspecting people who came to Jerusalem and walked into a miracle. We are already part of an ongoing miracle - and don’t want to miss a minute of it!

Three times a year, every Jewish man was supposed to come to Jerusalem to give thanks. Their Thanksgiving, like ours, was in the fall. They called it the Feast of Tabernacles, or Booths, though, because people built temporary shelters out in the fields to sleep in overnight, that is if they slept ...read more

Pentecost Means No Résumé Required

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 10, 2025

There are a lot of reasons people give as to why they think they aren't good enough to serve the Lord. Pentecost Day teaches that it is God's Gifts, and not our innate talents, which enable us to serve Him.

Good Morning. Last week, we looked at Christ ascending into Heaven, and being Seated at the Right hand of the Father. Jesus is no longer with his disciples, and making it more confusing for them, He commissioned them to go into all the world and expand His spiritual kingdom to the ends of the ...read more
