TEXT: Acts 19:11-20

What is it that makes someone a "Christian"? Is there a list of things we need to do? Things we need to memorize? What about Christians who have fallen away from God - what does the Bible encourage them to do? Today we take a look at a funny, yet powerful, section of Scripture that speaks into all of these questions.

TEXT: 18:1-17

Many Christians want to do tremendous things for God but feel like they don't know enough or have enough (fill in the blank). Instead of feeling empowered, they feel inadequate. As hard as it might be to believe, Paul actually had similar struggles, but instead of trusting his own skill or talents, he found his security in God. Today we will see that Simple Obedience rooted in Simple Faith is the fuel for Christians seeking to do tremendous things in God's Kingdom.

TEXT: Acts 17:22-34

How Christians engage culture matters.
For some, they join the culture's beliefs and values while others distance themselves... but are these the only two options Christians have? Today we look at Paul's journey in Athens and glean from him some perspective on how we can engage our own Acts 17 World.

TEXT: Acts 15:1-36

Life is made up of moments. Small moments and big moments. Throughout life, there are also moments that reveal what really matters to us and what we are all about. They are defining moments. The early church faced one of these moments in Acts 15 and its effects are felt even today.

TEXT: Acts 11:19-26

Hudson Taylor once said “Many Christians estimate difficulties in light of their own resources, and thus attempt little and often fail in the little they attempt. All God’s giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reckoned on His power and presence with them.” God never calls Christians to BE Greater... He calls them to be faithful and trust that HE is GREATER. Join us as we continue our series from Acts as we learn what it is to crave GREATER FAITH.

Have you ever wondered if there was more to the Christian faith than what you are experiencing? Many would answer yes but where they look to find amazing faith tends to look more like consumerism than faith.  Today we close out our ReFocus series and look at how we can find excitement in our faith by rejecting the temptation to be spiritual consumers.

NOTE: There was an issue with the audio that changed the audio from stereo (2 channel) to mono (1 channel). We will work to remedy this for next week.

The world around us is constantly changing. Some good. Some.... not so much.  However, even in the changing, there are some things that have not changed. Those are the things we need to focus on and even when life seems difficult we can refocus our attention on these things.

Contrary to popular thinking, not all worship is actually good. What we worship and who we worship matters. As we begin a new year a good place to start is evaluating the priority and focus of our hearts.

The word “paradox” describes a statement or event that at times may seem self-contradictory, that defies expectations or that is beyond comprehension. We encounter paradoxes all the time in our lives; however, the greatest paradox in our world is not a statement or event but a person: Jesus. Today we will look at the extraordinary birth of Jesus and how each encounter in the Birth Narrative was full of irony and incomprehensible moments and how Jesus defied expectations then and is still doing so even today. 

NOTE: We had a number of signal issues with our microphone during the sermon today - more than normal. We tried to clean it up the best we could and apologize for how spotty it sounds in places. We are getting closer to getting our new equipment so please bear with us as we work to get everything in order soon.

Worship is not a part of the Christian faith; it is the foundation of it. It’s not a suggestion, nor a good idea. It is a Christian’s primary response to a Holy, beautiful, wonderful, powerful, and grace-giving God. But how do you worship when you have nothing left to give? How do worship when you feel like you have nothing valuable to offer? It is possible and today we explore how.

We walk and live in a world full of darkness and it's not until something happens out of the ordinary that we see just how dark it really is. There are certain truths about the darkness that we have become blind to or have just grown used to that make it difficult for us to see, trust, or understand the beauty and allure of Light! Today we will take a look at the Truth about darkness and the lies we've come to believe while looking together toward the promise of conquering and beautiful Light.

"And in despair, I bowed my head... 'There is no peace on earth,' I said; 'For hate is strong, And mocks the song Of peace on earth, good-will to men!'" These words were written 157 years ago in the poem "Christmas Bells" (which later became the Christmas song "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day"), but the despair and longing in that stanza sound like something many in our world feel even today. Many, like the poet, wonder if hope has really died or if God has forgotten about us. Today we begin our countdown to Christmas and see that God not only remembers us but went out of His way to establish hope for us in the most unexpected way!

There is something inside of us as people that believes good things should happen to good people and bad things to bad people. While most people feel like they are generally good people. But the Bible tells us a different story. It shows us we are actually worse than we think we are, but also loved more radically than we could ever believe. Today we look at the story of Saul who comes face to face with that truth on the road to Damascus.
