Acts 6 with Josh Lewis

A new year often awakens our longing for growth—personally, spiritually, and as a church. In Acts 6, we’re given an honest picture of what real growth looks like in the life of God’s people. As the early church multiplies, pressure rises, distractions emerge, and resistance follows close behind. Yet rather than shrinking back, the apostles respond by protecting devotion to prayer and the Word of God. This passage reminds us that while growth is a gift from God, it always comes at a cost—and that faithful, lasting growth is formed not through control or efficiency, but through grace-fueled effort and dependence on the Holy Spirit.

Acts 4:36–5:16 with Josh Lewis

In Acts 4–5, Luke pulls back the curtain on the early church and shows us a community marked by radical generosity, deep unity, and the powerful presence of the Holy Spirit. But alongside a beautiful example in Barnabas, we’re confronted with a sobering counterfeit in Ananias and Sapphira. This passage invites us to wrestle honestly with God’s holiness, the danger of performative faith, and why God cares far more about truth and integrity than religious image

the early church, the Spirit shows up in power—not simply with miracles or bold preaching, but with a community whose hands suddenly open. After praying for courage, the believers in Acts 4 experience a fresh arrival of God’s presence, and the result is radical unity and radical generosity. This week we explore how God frees our hearts from fear, loosens our grip on our possessions, and forms a people who testify to Jesus in both word and deed.

Acts 4:23–37 with Josh Lewis

In the face of fear, opposition, and uncertainty, the early church didn’t shrink back—they prayed, were filled again with the Holy Spirit, and overflowed with radical generosity. In this teaching, we explore how God’s presence forms a people who give freely, courageously, and joyfully because they know the generosity they have received in Christ.

Acts 1-4 with Joshua Lewis

Jesus promises a beautiful Kingdom—but tells his disciples to wait for power. This teaching walks through Acts 1–4 and the pattern of the early church: wait, witness, face resistance, pray, and receive fresh boldness by the Holy Spirit.

Acts 16 with Shaun Garman

In Acts 16, we see a God who redirects steps, shuts strategic doors, and then opens human hearts in ways only He can. From Timothy’s faithfulness to Lydia’s conversion, to Paul and Silas singing in a prison cell, this passage reveals a Spirit who leads with both authority and tenderness. Shaun walks us through this incredible chapter, inviting us to see the Jesus who still frees captives, confronts evil, and meets His people in their wounds.

Matthew 16:21–28 with Tom Logue

Jesus turns toward the cross and invites His followers to do the same. When Peter tries to redirect Him toward an easier way, Jesus rebukes him—but not to cast him off. He calls him back to his rightful place: behind Him. True life is found in following Jesus.

Acts 2:1–47 with Joshua Lewis

When the Spirit of God fell at Pentecost, the disciples didn’t just receive power—they became a new kind of people. What began as prayer turned into boldness, generosity, and community that the world had never seen. This is how the Jesus Movement began, and it’s what the Spirit still wants to do among us today.
