Acts: Shipwrecked? Take Heart!

October 20, 2024 • Cory Sondrol • Philippians 4:11–13

Give

This week, we explore Philippians 4:11-13 and Paul's secret to contentment in all circumstances. Even amid storms and shipwrecks in Acts 27, Paul urges others to "take heart," trusting in God's promises. This message reminds us that no matter the challenges we face, God is always with us, using difficult moments to shape us into Christlikeness. Our current struggles are temporary, but God's eternal kingdom brings hope and peace.

Acts: We are Acts 29

October 27, 2024 • Acts 28

In the final message of our journey through Acts, we find Paul in Rome, under house arrest but still passionately proclaiming the gospel. Paul speaks of his imprisonment as a result of the “hope of Israel,” a deep-rooted hope in God’s promises of restoration, resurrection, and renewal. Even in chains, Paul’s life reflects a powerful call to action for the Church today—to welcome all, proclaim the Kingdom of God, and teach about Jesus with boldness. As we carry on this mission as “Acts 29,” we’re invited to live with the same hope-filled courage, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and dedicated to the message of Jesus.

Acts: Waiting for the Wind

October 13, 2024 • Jamie Van Dyke • Acts 24, Acts 25, Acts 26

This week's message focuses on how the church stands apart from everyday life as a place of worship, teaching, encouragement, and community. Jamie VanDyke draws from Acts 24-26, reflecting on Paul's faithfulness during two years of waiting without miracles or momentum. As we explore the metaphor of sailing through windless seasons, we'll see how Paul remained committed while others grew bitter or fearful.

ACTS: Trusting in God's Presence

October 6, 2024 • Cory Sondrol, Gary Best • Acts 22

In this powerful message, Gary Best challenges us to examine where we place our trust in a world that values independence. How do we truly rely on God in our everyday lives? We explore the importance of being aware of God's presence, carrying His peace in an anxious world, and responding to His invitations in our daily walk. This sermon invites us to trust more deeply and live with a greater awareness of God's activity around us.
