The Vision of Jesus – Revelation 1:1-20
The Vision of Jesus 2 Reactions: undue excitement; abject fear undue excitement: curiosities are peaked, as though the primary and sole purpose of Revelation is to satisfy our curiosities about the future; to enable us to be code-crackers about every current event; or to assure us and bolster our pride that our way of thinking is correct over and against what those other people think – whether they be liberals whose view of the bible is too sophisticated even for…
Easter – The Beginning and End of Death – 1 Corinthians 15:20-28; 35-58
This passage is a history of the human race. It spans from the very beginning, to the very end; past, present, and future; and though it’s brief it captures the lowest and highest points of human history; it captures the greatest tragedy, and the greatest triumph, ever known. It’s a history of death. It captures the greatest tragedy – the entrance of death into this world; and it captures the greatest triumph – the defeat of death. If you’ve experienced the…
The Gospel goes to Rome – Acts 27-28
In the conclusion of the book of Acts, we read about Paul’s Journey to Rome, and Paul’s Ministry in Rome. At the end of Acts, the story is unfinished, challenging all who read it, “How will we continue the story of the gospel’s progress to the ends of the earth?” Sermon Text
On Trial – Acts 24-26
Paul defends himself before governors and kings. In his defense we see that 1) he is not a trouble-maker; 2) he is not an opportunist; 3) his message is not a novelty; 4) his message is not about something done in a corner. Sermon Text
Under Arrest – Acts 21-23

The Gospel goes to Ephesus – Acts 18:18 – 19:41
What is the result of the gospel encountering a life; a human heart; a culture? When the gospel encounters Ephesus, rioting results, because the gospel challenges that culture’s idols and clashes with it’s cherished beliefs, values, and lifestyles. We should not be surprised when the same thing happens in our culture today, or when the gospel challenges the idols of our own hearts. Sermon Text
The Gospel goes to Corinth
Acts 18:1-17
Paul is confident to carry out his calling to preach Jesus in Corinth because of the promise he receives of divine protection, and the assurance he receives of divine election. He knows, as can we, that through the words of Jesus’ messengers, the Good Shepherd calls out to his own sheep; and though our words are imperfect and inadequate, His voice – the voice of the Good Shepherd – rings out loud and clear through our dull words; His sheep hear…

The Gospel goes to Thessalonica & Berea
Acts 17:1-15
The faithful preaching of God’s Word is vital to the life of the Church. In Thessalonica, we see how Scripture was essential to Paul’s ministry, along with a model example of how Paul preached. In Berea, we see a model example of how his hearers listened and responded to his preaching. Sermon Text
The Gospel Goes to Philippi
Acts 16:6-40
Have you ever encountered a road-block in life? And had to sort of take a detour from your intended plan? Perhaps you feel that your whole life has been one giant road-block. Paul and his companions end up in Philippi, even though that wasn’t the initial plan for their destination, because they encounter a roadblock along the way. But what we see is that the road-block is really a divine detour which God uses to guide them along the path of…
