Nov. 01, 2009--DID YOU RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT?
Today's reading, Acts 18:24-19:7 gives rise to two messages:
#1. About Apollos, his openness to receive correction from Aquila & Priscilla and the way they offered the correction.
#2. The nature of the correction...which leads us to conclude that every Christian must:
REPENT of sin (once you become aware of the Father's love) AND
RECEIVE Jesus (as Saviour and Lord) AND
RECEIVE the Holy Spirit (not just once, but continually) AND
RENEW one's mind constantly (by co-operating with the Holy Spirit and becoming more and more like Jesus)

Oct. 25, 2009--CHURCH WORK vs THE WORK OF THE CHURCH
In the reading from Acts 18:1-23, we discover once again that the first and foremost thing the apostle Paul does when he gets to a new place is to Lengthen the Reach of the gospel by usually going to the synagogue and convincing the Jews that Jesus is the promised Messiah. His second emphasis (as revealed by his 18 month stay in Corinth and his decision to go back and visit the churches in Galatia and Phrygia) is to Strengthen the Reached.
This message stresses the fact that this is really THE WORK OF THE CHURCH and encourages today's churches not to simply settle for doing CHURCH WORK.

You may also wish to listen to the pre-offering message: "Meditate on the Promises and not on the Problems." by itself!

Sept. 27, 2009--AFFIRMATION MINUS CONFORMATION EQUALS TRANSFORMATION
Today's reading from Acts 17:16-34 presents an excellent example of how to communicate the gospel to those who do not have any kind of Judaeo-Christian background, as we take a close look at Paul's address in Athens.
The process by which Paul does it begins with AFFIRMATION (common ground), but he then quickly moves on to show how his beliefs do not CONFORM to theirs and then waits for the Holy Spirit to bring about TRANSFORMATION.

The message focuses on what this means...the difference between happiness and joy...and ends with a time of asking to be filled by the Holy Spirit.

May 24, 2009--THE "GO" OF THE GOSPEL
As we continue our walk through the book of Acts, we notice a shift taking place. Geographical borders are being crossed (as Jesus had directed) from "Jewish" to "Gentile" territory as are dividing lines between people groups.
Today's reading from Acts 11:1-4, 18-30 is a prime example of how the apostles are taking seriously THE "GO" OF THE GOSPEL...are we?

May 10, 2009--THAT'S NOT HOW MY MAMMA RAISED ME!
On this Mother's Day, the reading from Acts 10:1-23 focuses on Peter's reaction to the vision in which he is told to feast on unclean animals...which very well could've been something like: THAT'S NOT HOW MY MAMMA RAISED ME! But, God was preparing him to take the gospel to the "unclean" Gentiles. Peter goes beyond his initial instincts, obeys God, and the rest is history.
The message looks at examples (from the preacher's personal experience) of times when we may be called to go beyond how our "mamma" raised us as well!

May 03, 2009--HIS POWER AND OUR AUTHORITY
The healing of a paralytic (Aeneas) and the raising of a dead woman (Tabitha) through Peter's ministry in Acts 9:32-43 remind us of similar miracles in Jesus' ministry. We are struck by the AUTHORITY with which both Jesus and Peter ministered.
The message focuses on how Jesus wants us to use HIS POWER & OUR AUTHORITY today.

Based on Acts 5:17-41, the message uses v. 41 as the springboard to isolate THE MANDATE of the church-- "To daily preach and teach Jesus as the Christ", and THE METHOD by which the early church fulfilled the mandate--"meeting in the temple and in every house".

Feb. 15, 2009--The PH Factor of Church Health (Growth)
The Scripture Reading for this Sunday is Acts 5:11-16. Coming on the heels of the deaths of Ananias and Sapphira, this passage highlights the amazing signs and wonders that characterized the life of the early church.
In looking over 5:1-16 as a whole, we are reminded that the Church kept growing because it maintained a healthy balance between POWER and HOLINESS...the PH factor.

Feb. 08, 2009--RED FLAGS
Peter addresses Ananias in Acts 5:3 with these words: "How is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land?"
How could a born-again, Spirit-filled follower of Jesus like Ananias allow Satan to fill his heart? The story of Ananias and Sapphira raises RED FLAGS that all followers of Jesus must heed.

Jan. 18, 2009--WHAT DO WE HAVE TO GIVE
In Acts 3:1-10, when Peter and John meet the lame man at the Temple Gate, he expects them to give him alms, but Peter says to him: "Silver and gold have I none, but what I have I give to you. In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, get up and walk." This verse forms the basis of today's message: WHAT DO WE HAVE TO GIVE.
