Acts – Confidence in the church

October 6, 2024
When we read stories like Peter and John healing the man at the temple gate, the question I’m always left with is, where has our confidence in God gone? Why is it we read these stories in scripture, but we don’t see them happening or hear them being talked about in our churches today? Why do we not have the same confidence that Peter and John displayed when they walked up to this crippled man and said, ‘in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.’

Acts – Pentecost

September 15, 2024
If we waited for the Spirit today as the disciples did, would the tongues we speak in make us more relevant and understandable to our community? Surely as we learn to wait on God in preparation for being his witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth, this is what we should be asking God to do for us, that we would be understandable.

Acts – What is the church

September 8, 2024
If the church calls us into service through the guidance of the spirit and by the authority of God then we are not called to volunteer (A volunteer is someone who gives themselves to something without expectation, it is voluntary, our choice.) If the church has the authority of God and acts under the guidance of the Spirit, then we are not being asked to volunteer but commanded to serve

Acts – Waiting on God

September 1, 2024
Instead of worrying about what tomorrow will bring or what the future will be, what the church will look like, or when Christ will return, we have been charged with witnessing to the goodness and the gospel of Jesus Christ. That witnessing begins here in these pews, our Jerusalem. We are to remind one another, teach one another, point one another to Jesus, the cross. We are to remind one another that our hope not just for the future, but for today lies in Christ alone.
