  • Pentecost: A New Reality – Acts 2:1-39
    Jerry Cisar -

    “When the day of Pentecost came...” means something entirely different today than it did on the day it came in Acts 2. Today we associate that day with the day the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples and they all spoke in tongues. We might even go as far as recognizing it as the birth of the church.

    However, Pentecost had a meaning before that day. That meaning informs the events of Acts 2 as much as the Passover informs our understanding of the Last Supper. In this sermon, we take a fresh look at Acts 2 and discover what it communicates to us today that exceeds most discussions which are had about this chapter.

    In fact, the more fully we see the truths this chapter communicates the more it will change how we read the Bible and respond to it, change how we engage the world around us, change how we use our possessions, change how we view our participation in the local church, and so much more.

  • Philemon: A Story That Tells The Story
    Daryn Kinney -

    A runaway slave stole from his master, encountered the truth of Jesus while away and returned to the one he stole from with a letter in hand. It doesn’t get more complicated than this. That’s the letter of Philemon! Who in their right mind would return to the one they had stolen and runaway from? How would the one he offended treat him? This is a heart-pounding encounter!

    Do we really believe (and live like) the truth of Jesus’ reign over us is so personal and invasive that we will risk our wellbeing, comfort, reputation and even our freedom to faithfully follow Him? The story we find in Philemon tells another story – and we have so much to learn from it. This Sunday we'll take a break from our current series in Acts and explore this short but powerful letter.
