In this sermon from Acts 3:1-16 we see something happen that is very similar to what we saw in Acts 2. God did something incredible that drew a crowd. When Peter saw the crowd he told them all about Jesus. He addressed the entire crowd and told them who Jesus is, what Jesus has done, and how Jesus is the Messiah that they have all been waiting for.

In this passage we see that it is only by embracing Jesus by faith and repentance that one can have a relationship with God. We see that we don't get saved by our own power or our own good works. In fact, we are needy beggars who can do nothing for ourselves and that it is God who must bring life into our dead souls.

Last week Peter told everyone to repent and save themselves from a crooked generation. This week, they form a new community, but this community isn't just another community. This is a community of beautiful and faithful devotion. It is a community where the people have a vision of God that leaves them in awe. It is a community where God does incredible things in their midst. It is a community where people let go of so much that they hold on to and share their lives with others.

In this sermon on Acts 2:42-47, Kyle Truman challenges all people who claim Jesus as their savior to radically devote themselves to their church family and to anticipate great and incredible things to happen amongst God's people.

Peter just told everyone that Jesus had lived, died, rose from the dead and ascended to the right hand of the Father to reign as King. 

His listeners were cut to the heart and asked what they needed to do. Peter's response to their question teaches us much about how the necessity and nature of conversion. In this sermon we also learn much about how we are to instruct others about their need to repent and turn to God. This short passage holds many keys to effective ministry. Should God's people take these lessons to heart we will likely see an incredible outpouring of God's mercy on the lost world around us.

In this sermon on Acts 2:22-36 brother Hunter Derby shows us how Peter confronted the Jews about their rejection of God's Messiah, Jesus Christ. Many of the people who were present that day had a hand in the crucifixion of Jesus just several weeks prior to this sermon. They killed God's chosen King. They treated the Jesus as a common criminal. But God had a plan and a purpose and no one would thwart the purposes of God.

God made Jesus whom they crucified both Lord and Christ and all should bow down before Him.

God was doing some incredible things and the crowds in Jerusalem were trying to figure out what it all meant. Some were even accusing God’s people of being drunk at 9:00 in the morning!

In this sermon from Acts 2:14-21 we see that what God is doing is what the prophet Joel had predicted hundreds of years prior to this event. God is now pouring out His Spirit on all people and we are now in the days where anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

In this sermon from Acts 2:1-13, we see God send His Holy Spirit just as He promised that He would. In this passage the Spirit comes with the sound of a mighty rushing wind and divided tongues of fire and He rests upon the 120 who were waiting for Him. It was then that they began proclaiming the wonderful works of God in many different languages that they had never spoken before.

This story is rich in symbolism and imagery that speak much about the new covenant and the church's mission. Most importantly we see that the Spirit is necessary if we are going to be witnesses to the good news of Jesus and His Kingdom.

As we continue to learn what Jesus started in the book of Acts we come to Acts 1:15-26 where Peter leads the way in selecting Judas Iscariot's replacement.

Judas had committed suicide due to the guilt he had when he betrayed Jesus. In this passage Peter seeks to be obedient to the scriptures and leads the 120 believers under his care in a process to select Judas' replacement. 

The life of Judas serves as a warning to the double minded man who has an appearance of godliness but does not depart from lawlessness. 

Additional scriptures include Ps. 69:25, Ps. 109:8, Prov. 16:33, Matt 7:21-23, Matt 7:13-14, and 2 Tim. 2:19.

In this sermon we look at Acts 1:9-14. In this we see Jesus ascend into the sky into the heavens where He is seated at the right hand of God.

What does this mean for us now? How does this affect how we come to God? How we do ministry? How are we to think of Jesus' supremacy over all things and His Kingdom?

In this third message on Acts 1:1-8 we examine Jesus' Kingdom.

What is the kingdom? Is it now? Is it later? What will it be like? What does it have to do with what we are going to see happen in the book of Acts? What does it have to do with us today?
