One of the most misunderstood things about Jesus is the miracles that He performed. Too often, people need to witness things such as miraculous healings, financial gains, or mended relationships to confirm that God is, in fact, real. In today’s message, Pastor Bill wants you to know that you need to let God into your life for the power of His grace and that alone. If you let things other than purely who He dictate what you worship, you will never be saved. Let Jesus usher you into eternity.

There are a million reasons to be afraid today: global warming, economic collapse, or nuclear war, just to name a few. But we have exactly one reason to hope. And that one reason overpowers every other cause of fear in the world. That one reason is that Jesus Christ is alive. He conquered sin and death and made a way for you and me to go to the Father. Once we see this for all that it truly means, fear fades away to nothing. In today's message, Pastor Bill is going to remind us of this great truth!

Paul wrote a significant chunk of the New Testament. He was the original missionary, sacrificing his safety and health over and over again in order to share the gospel. If anyone had cause to be proud, or to feel that he was higher than another person, it would be Paul. And yet what we see is that he considers himself the “chief of sinners” not the “chief apostle.” He never forgets who he was when Jesus appeared to him. In today's message, Pastor Bill is going to remind you to keep that same mindset!

It doesn't matter how many times you fall down. It doesn't matter how many times you've run away. It doesn't matter how many times you've failed. The message of the gospel is the message of grace. God's grace is greater than all your sin. It's greater than all your fears and failures! In today's message, Pastor Bill is going to trace the story of grace through the book of Acts and we will get to see that God doesn't give up on people. The Apostle Paul gave up on John Mark, but God still didn't give up.

Jesus commanded his followers over and over to love one another. But the love of Jesus is different than the kind of love the world may offer. The world may say it's love to let everyone do their own thing. “You do you” may feel like love, but really it isn't. In today's message, Pastor Bill is going to show you what true love looks like! True love is always found in truth. You can't do that because Jesus is God. What you need to do is submit yourself to the King of Kings and learn to walk with Him!

You might think in order to share the gospel, you need to have all the answers. That simply isn't true! The moment you come to Christ, you're qualified to be the messenger to bring others to him. Think about the woman at the well. Jesus told her that he is the Messiah, and she immediately went to everyone she knew saying, “Come and see!” In today's message, Pastor Bill is going to show you that all you need to know is that Jesus is the Savior! Then go out and bring others to him. Just say, “Come and See!”

If you're anything like me, you sometimes look at the overwhelming problems in the world. Even in one corner of the world! There are so many people walking so far from God, and even the people who walk with God are experiencing trouble after trouble. And I look at all of that and think, “Who am I?” Without the power of God working in and through us we have nothing to bring. But, as Pastor Bill is going to show you in today's message, God will continue to use you—again and again!

Are you working for the Lord? You do what you do on God's behalf. Do you get weary in well-doing? Pastor Bill discerns today between ministering for the Lord and ministering to the Lord. What's the difference? The difference is found in our motivation. When we minister to the Lord, we aim to please Him. The audience is God. When we minister to the Lord, we are often ministering to please other people, striving for our own strength. Let’s humbly seek to please the One Who loves us the most...

Have you ever been in that situation? It's where everything was dark all around you and no visible way out. Where are you, God? Today, Pastor Bill reminds us that God is always with us and promises to care for and protect us. God is an ever-present and proven help in times of trouble. Hasn't God rescued us from trouble before? Will He not do it again? He is there even when the darkness presses in hard around us. God is supernatural; He can even see in the dark! No matter how bad things get, God won’t let go.

It's so easy to do, isn't it? It's easy to play God. Have you ever caught yourself placing your will above God's will? Pastor Bill today reviews how King Herod tried unsuccessfully to impose his will over God's will. In our case, we are rebelling against God when we ignore what we know God wants us to do. We reason that what God wants doesn't make sense and we convince ourselves that it can’t really be His will. Thus, we disobey God because we think that we know what is best. Let's learn to submit to God.
