Responding to Persecution: Part 2

January 21, 2024 • Pastor Steve Gibson • Acts 22:23–30, Acts 23:1–22, Proverbs 15:1–2

Walking in obedience to God has a tendency to upset those who do not know Him. Paul knows this all too well. So how do we react? How do we continue to bring glory to God in the midst of even severe persecution when we are simply doing what God has asked us to? Will we trust that God will carry us through the things He has called us to? We'll look at how this Sunday.

Freedom and a Living Faith

March 3, 2024 • Pastor Steve Gibson • Hebrews 4:12, Acts 28:16–30, Matthew 5:10–12, Philemon 13

We conclude our series in Acts seeing that Paul has finally made it to Rome, having come through unimaginable hardships all the while. Paul believed that in spite of the treacherous journey he faced, that God was with him and would remain faithful. When we entrust our lives, our circumstances, our suffering to God, we can see that He is faithful to us, giving us a freedom and a living faith in Him.

A Calling Worth the Cost

February 25, 2024 • Pastor Steve Gibson • Acts 28:1–16, 2 Corinthians 12:7–10, Galatians 6:17

We're quick to think God has forgotten us in times of suffering, when quite the opposite is true. Paul endured rejection, beatings, arrests, imprisonment, hunger and a devastating shipwreck on the way to being used and refined miraculously by God. Paul trusted that the calling on his life was worth the cost. How do we get there?

Surrender in the Storm

February 18, 2024 • Pastor Steve Gibson • Acts 27, Proverbs 16:9

Most of us are in the middle of navigating a storm of some kind. Typically our first action is to attempt to navigate raging seas on our own strength. Could it be that these storms are used by God to show us how helpless we are without his strength? Will we turn from our striving and trust him? What do you need to surrender?
