Calvary Arlington episodes

  • Acts 23:12-24:27
    The Jews had caused a riot when they heard Paul speak about his own story and Jesus calling him to bring the gospel to the Gentiles. God is using these circumstances to guide him as he presents the gospel higher and higher from the despised gentiles to the Roman Government leaders. Jesus turns every trial into a testimony and every hardship into a higher opportunity for the gospel.

  • Acts 22:22-23:11

    Do you ever feel like you can’t open your mouth without getting into trouble? You try to speak the truth, but somehow it lands wrong, and suddenly you’re the problem. Sometimes standing for what’s right doesn’t make you popular—it just makes you a target. Paul knew that feeling well. Today, as we continue in Acts 22, we are going to see how Paul’s words got him in trouble over and over, and yet he continued to speak the truth.

  • Acts 22:1-21
    As Paul addresses the crowd he gives us a great outline of how to likewise share our own story of redemption. 

    Six Elements of a Testimony

    1. Connection – Start by building a bridge. Paul began with respect and common ground (“Brethren and fathers…”); approach people in a way that invites listening, not resistance.

    2. Before Christ – Briefly describe who you were. Share what shaped your life or thinking before Jesus—enough to give context, not to glorify the past.

    3. Sin – Acknowledge your need for grace. Be honest about the heart issues that separated you from God—whether outward rebellion or inward pride and self-reliance.

    4. Encounter – Tell how Jesus met you. Describe the moment or season when Christ confronted your heart and opened your eyes to who He is.

    5. Conversion – Explain how you responded. Share the turning point—your surrender, repentance, or prayer of faith—when you trusted Jesus personally.

    6. Commission – Show how your life changed and what God called you to do.

    Every believer is sent; your story ends not with salvation alone but with a mission to make Him known.

  • Acts 21:1-26
    Why would Paul ignore warnings from the Holy Spirit about danger ahead? We have some great lessons about the gospel, his attitude toward ministry, and some important lessons regarding proper bible study methods. The answer: "there are people there".

  • Acts 20:13-38
    Paul knows he will likely never see these Ephesian elders again, and so he gathers them for one final meeting.

    Pastor Jim leaves us with four questions to consider: • Do I see the church as a family to love, or just a service to attend? • Am I participating in prayer with and for my church family? • Does my love for God’s people show in real affection, sacrifice, and even sorrow at parting? • Am I committed for the long haul, building the kind of deep relationships that only time and presence can create?

  • Acts 20:1-12
    As we look at the continuing work of Paul we see the nature of his work, the danger of his work, and the comfort in the work. In this passage we also get a rare glimpse into the early church gathering.
