- Is This Too Good to be True?
Are you hesitant to believe that something really good can happen in your life? For many of us, when life’s obstacles come our way we start to believe that our future is only going to get worse. Luke tells the story of Peter sleeping in a jail cell waiting to be executed, but he woke up in the middle of the night to a prison break – by an angel. And just like you, he didn’t believe it at first. Join us as we examine our mental prisons and how we can break free.

25 min - How to be a Main Character (without being the Villain)
Can people change? Even if we’re hopeful about our own ability to grow and change, most of us are skeptical about whether our enemies can ever change. In Acts 9, Luke tells the story of Ananias who was called to support Saul’s transformation despite the fact that Saul had intended harm to people like Ananias. Join us as we reflect on the hope that people can change for the better.

25 min - The Power of Confession
This week Pastor Dallas encourages you to embrace the healing power of confession – even when it isn’t easy.
Have you ever felt like there wasn’t closure after a fight? Time just moved on and things were just supposed to be okay. This week, we’re talking about the power of confession. In Acts 16, a mob in Philippi decided to beat and imprison Paul and Silas, and the next morning they wanted the problem just to go away. But Paul wouldn’t let them. Join us as we look at the power of confession for healing.

26 min - Healing Each Other's Wounds
This week Pastor Dallas encourages you to heal wounds you haven’t even noticed yet.
Sometimes we’re oblivious to the pains around us. We don’t see the pain we’ve caused. Maybe they’re hiding their pain or maybe we aren’t looking. Even more, sometimes we’re oblivious to our own pain. We think our life is great, but we haven’t noticed the darkness lurking underneath. In Acts 16, Paul and Silas are bleeding and imprisoned, and yet in that dark place they are able to reveal the value of life to their prison guard. Don’t miss this powerful story of what’s possible with God!

31 min - When Is It Okay To Be Annoyed?
This week Pastor Dallas encourages you to stop complaining about injustice and do something about it.
When Is It Okay to be Annoyed? (Acts 16:16-24)
Chances are there are some things wrong with this world that frustrate you. You see it, even without looking for it. Some people are working multiple jobs and still struggling to earn enough to survive on. Others suffer from addictions but can’t get help unless they break the law. In Acts 16, Paul becomes annoyed for an unusual reason – a slave girl who is being used as a fortune teller keeps celebrating Paul and Silas’ message of salvation. Finally Paul decides to act, and we should too. Join us as we seek to bring God’s freedom to those around us.

23 min - Does God Need My Money?
This week Pastor Dallas shares about the relationship between money and God’s power.
Does God Need My Money? (Acts 8:4-25)
Most spiritual people will tell you that money can’t buy you divine favor. Yet, we are all tempted to use our money to gain power and elevate our reputation. In Acts 8, Luke writes about a man named Simon who wanted to buy the apostle’s power. Join us as we discuss this unusual request and what it reveals about our unhealthy relationship with money.

26 min - Robbing Power
This week Pastor Dallas shares about how faking spirituality robs you of God’s power for your life.
Robbing Power (Acts 4:32-5:16)
Have you ever wondered if something was too good to be true? That lingering question could be a realization of problems hidden under the surface. On the other hand, that lingering question could be robbing an actually good thing of its power for you. This week, we read the tragic story of Ananias and Sapphira, who tried to fake it like they were all in with the early church. Join us as we discuss the power of authenticity.

27 min - What Power Do Christians Have?
The Gatekeepers (Acts 2:1-21)
We live in an age where a lot of the traditional gatekeepers have fallen. News channels and newspapers still exist; but news commentary also happens by influencers on Twitch and TikTok. Authors don’t have to find traditional publishers; they can publish directly to Amazon. Musicians don’t have to sign a major record deal; they can release music on Spotify or Soundcloud. Despite this new world, many of us still struggle to find our voice. This week, we celebrate Pentecost where God’s spirit powerfully moved unexpected people to speak out good news to the crowds gathered in Jerusalem. Let today be another Pentecost in Jackson.
