God created work as a good gift, but sin can turn work into an idol. Some men avoid responsibility, while others make their careers, success, and productivity the measure of their worth. In this episode, Dave Jenkins calls men to commit their work to the Lord, labor with diligence and integrity, guard against workaholism, and refuse to let ambition replace devotion to Christ. Because believers belong to Christ, they can work faithfully without making achievement their identity.

Jesus in Psalm 58:1-2

The fate of the devil and all who believe his lies.

This sermon provides an introductory study of Acts chapter one, emphasizing the historical value and supernatural evidence supporting Jesus' resurrection. The speaker details the 'infallible proofs' of Christ's physical return from the dead and distinguishes between water baptism and the subsequent baptism with the Holy Spirit. Attention is given to the ascension event and the angels' promise of Jesus' future return, while clarifying that the timing of this event remains solely under God's authority. The narrative concludes by examining the early church's gathering and the selection of Matthias to replace Judas Iscariot among the apostles.
