  • The Mission Isn't Over | Sunday Extended | Jamie Grisham & Tommy Hodges

    The book of Acts may end in chapter 28, but the mission of the Church is far from over.Jesus didn't just call us to believe in Him. He called us to know Him, follow Him, and make Him known. From our homes to our communities and to the ends of the earth, we have a responsibility to share the Gospel and tell the next generation about the goodness of God.In this message, we're reminded that the same mission Jesus gave His disciples is the mission He's given us today. The question is, what are we doing withScripture: Acts 1:8, Mark 16:15, Acts 28:30–31Watch Sermon Related: https://youtu.be/ZklPmmSRl24

  • The Vision Will Cost You | Sunday Extended | Jamie Grisham and Tommy Hodges

    God-Given Vision | Acts 26:16–19What happens when God's vision for your life interrupts your plans?In Acts 26, Paul stands before King Agrippa and shares how one encounter with Jesus changed everything. His calling wasn't comfortable, and obedience didn't come without a cost. But through every trial, Paul remained faithful to the vision God had given him.In this message, we discover three truths: A God-given vision will STOP you, SEND you, and STRETCH you.God's vision for your life is bigger than your own ambitions. It's about surrendering your plans, walking in obedience, and reaching the people He's called you to reach.Setbacks don't cancel the calling. The question is, will you be obedient to what God has placed before you?Watch Sermon Related: https://youtu.be/dB8KbqmEcs4?si=jkjDLu1qFEkv4qvj

  • The Cost of Obedience: Your Story Is Your Platform

    What happens when obedience costs you something?


    In Acts 22, Paul stands beaten, chained, and surrounded by people who wanted him dead. But instead of defending himself, he uses the moment as a platform to tell his story, who he was, how Jesus encountered him, and what God called him to do.

    In “The Cost of Obedience,” we’re reminded that we should never forget who we were, one encounter with Jesus can change everything, and we weren’t just saved, we were sent.


    Your testimony doesn’t have to convince everyone. Your responsibility is to tell what Jesus has done and trust God with the response.


    There is someone in your life who may never listen to a sermon or walk into a church, but they cannot argue with what Jesus has done in you.

    You saw it. You heard it. You lived it. Go tell it.

  • The God of the Supernatural

    The God who moved supernaturally in the book of Acts is still moving today.


    In Acts 19, we see extraordinary miracles, healing, deliverance, and lives radically transformed by the power of God. But the people didn’t simply experience His power—they responded to it. They walked away from old lives, surrendered what once held them, and turned completely toward Jesus.

    In this message, we’re reminded that God still heals, delivers, restores, saves, and breaks chains. He doesn’t need you to be extraordinary—He simply needs you to be available.Because the greatest supernatural miracle isn’t only what God does around you. It’s what God does inside you.

    Scripture: Acts 19:11–19

  • Processing video... How Do We Reach a Changing Culture Without Changing the Gospel?

    How do we reach a changing culture without changing the Gospel?


    In this episode, Pastor Jamie and Pastor Tommy unpack Acts 17 and Paul’s approach to sharing Jesus in Thessalonica, Berea, and Athens, three different cultures that required different approaches but the same unchanging truth.


    They discuss what it looks like to see people with compassion instead of frustration, build bridges without compromising the message, and recognize the deeper search happening behind culture’s ideas, beliefs, and idols.


    The Gospel doesn’t need to change to remain relevant. Our approach may change, but the message stays the same, and that message always leads to Jesus.


    The goal isn’t simply for people to know about Him. It’s for people to truly KNOW HIM.

  • God’s Greatest Yes Is Hidden in His No | Compassion Church Dickson

    What do you do when you’ve prayed, believed, and trusted God, but the answer is still, "no"?In Acts 16, Paul wasn’t running from God. He was trying to do something good, preach the Gospel, yet the Holy Spirit closed the door twice. What looked like rejection was actually redirection toward something far greater than Paul could see.God’s “no” is not rejection; it’s redirection.Paul’s obedience led him to Macedonia, where Lydia became the first recorded European convert, a slave girl was set free, and a jailer and his household encountered salvation. What began with two closed doors ultimately changed generations.This message reminds us that difficult seasons don’t always mean we’ve missed God. Sometimes hardship is confirmation, not correction. The closed door may be the very thing God uses to lead us into His greater purpose.Maybe your greatest act of faith right now isn’t asking God to open another door, it’s thanking Him for the one He closed.Sermon Related: https://youtu.be/gmXfA5l3yr0

  • The Danger of Deception in the Last Days

    Success often attracts opposition, but opposition doesn't mean you're outside of God's will. In Acts 14, Paul and Barnabas experienced incredible breakthrough, yet they also faced resistance, deception, persecution, and even violence. Why? Because the true Gospel confronts darkness, and the enemy will always try to stop what God is doing.In this message, we unpack how spiritual opposition often follows spiritual impact, why discernment is essential in a culture full of competing voices, and how to recognize truth in a world where deception is becoming more common. You'll discover why Satan imitates what God does, how false teaching twists Scripture to fit personal agendas, and why wisdom and perseverance are vital for every believer.Even after being rejected, chased, and stoned, Paul refused to quit. He continued preaching the Gospel, strengthening believers, and fulfilling the mission God had given him. His example reminds us that following Jesus has never been about comfort, it has always been about faithfulness.

    If you've ever wondered why serving God can feel difficult, how to stand firm in the face of opposition, or how to develop biblical discernment in today's world, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to keep going.No matter what resistance comes your way, don't let people stop what Jesus wants to do through you.

  • Chosen. Before you were ready.

    What if your season of waiting is actually God preparing you for your calling?In this episode, we walk through Acts 13 and discover how Barnabas and Saul were handpicked by God, not because they were the loudest or most visible, but because they were faithfully seeking Him through worship, prayer, and fasting. Their story reminds us that God is still calling ordinary people to live out extraordinary purposes today.We'll talk about why intimacy with God always comes before assignment, how waiting is never wasted, and what it looks like to stay focused on Jesus in a world full of distractions and opinions.If you've ever wondered whether God still has a purpose for your life, this conversation will encourage you to trust His timing, listen for His voice, and boldly answer His call.**Scriptures Referenced:*** Acts 13:1–45* Isaiah 6:8* Psalm 46:10* John 10:27* Psalm 27:14* Isaiah 40:31* John 15:19Don't forget to subscribe so you never miss a new episode, and share this with someone who needs the reminder that they are handpicked by God for His purpose.

  • ARE YOU MISSING GOD'S MOVE? | Compassion Church

    In Acts 7, Stephen stands before the religious leaders and delivers more than a history lesson, he reminds God's people of His faithfulness throughout every generation.From Abraham's faith to follow God's call, to Joseph's journey through suffering and redemption, to Moses being raised up as a deliverer in dark times, Stephen points to a God who has always been on the move. Even when people failed, resisted, or doubted, God remained faithful to His promises.But Stephen's message isn't just about looking back. It's a challenge to examine our own hearts. Are we responding to the voice of God, or are we resisting what He wants to do in our lives today?In this message, we'll discover:• How remembering God's faithfulness strengthens our faith today• Why God often works through imperfect people and unexpected circumstances• The danger of becoming familiar with the things of God while resisting the voice of God• How to live with the courage, conviction, and Spirit-filled faith of StephenAs we look back at the faith of those who came before us, we find inspiration to keep pressing forward. The same God who called Abraham, sustained Joseph, delivered through Moses, and empowered Stephen is still moving today.📖 Main Text: Acts 6:15–7:60Key Scriptures:• Acts 7:51• Genesis 50:20• Romans 8:28• Hebrews 3:7–9• Isaiah 29:13• 2 Timothy 3:5Watch Sermon Related: https://youtu.be/7Du0PpI_tIo🔔 NEXT STEPS👍 Like this video💬 Drop a comment: “I’m trusting God in the waiting”📲 Share this with someone who’s in an in-between season🔔 Subscribe for more messages like this

  • Queen Abi: The Mother Behind a Move of God

    This Mother’s Day message reminds us that some of the greatest moves of God happen through people the world barely notices.

    In this episode, we dive into the story of Queen Abi — the mother of King Hezekiah — a woman whose name is only briefly mentioned in Scripture, yet whose faith shaped one of Judah’s greatest reformers. While her husband, King Ahaz, led the nation into darkness and idolatry, Abi chose trust, persistence, and tenacity.

    💐 In this message:
    • How to trust God in difficult environments
    • The power of persistent faith over time
    • Breaking generational cycles through obedience
    • Why unseen faithfulness still carries eternal impact

    “You don’t have to be famous to be faithful, and you don’t have to be visible to be vital.”

    📖 Scriptures:
    2 Kings 18:1–7
    1 Corinthians 1:26–29
    Deuteronomy 6:6–9
    2 Chronicles 29:3–5
    Galatians 6:9
    Proverbs 22:6
    Isaiah 55:10–11

    No matter your story or background, the family you came from does not have to be the family that comes from you.

    👑 You may never wear a crown on your head, but you’re shaping the crowns your children will lay at Jesus’ feet.
