Pentecost wasn’t designed to be a one-time spark that we saw in Acts 2 that slowly fades into a memory. It’s meant to be a fire we tend, feed, and grow — a fire that spreads into every corner of our lives and into every place God sends us.

In this powerful message, we're reminded of Jesus' profound words: 'Let not your heart be troubled.' Drawing from John 14, we explore the deep significance of trusting God amidst life's storms. The story of Jesus calming the sea in Mark 4 beautifully illustrates this trust, challenging us to remain peaceful even when circumstances seem dire. We're encouraged to recognize the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, our constant source of peace and strength. This lesson invites us to renew our minds, focusing on God's promises rather than our problems. By doing so, we can cultivate an unshakeable faith that withstands life's trials, becoming a powerful witness to those around us. Let's embrace the peace Christ offers and learn to be 'untroubled in our troubles,' transforming our thought life and deepening our relationship with God.

1 Corinthians 12:12 (NKJV) “For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.”

Community is our Opportunity all hinges on us embracing our purpose as a local congregation; Helping people discover and develop a life in Christ.

Tonight’s talk is titled, Pentecost: Repentance Required

If you have your bibles, lets jump into our key text, turn to Acts 2:38

Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV) YOU ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.

Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

In the same way, LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

We remembered how Pentecost wasn’t just an event… it was a turning point.

It was the birth of the Church, the coming of the Spirit, and the unleashing of power into everyday believers.

At the end of the day, when it comes to People being are our Purpose, I can’t overstate how important our attitude is.

Without the right attitude, it'll be very easy to look past the one God's wanting us to influence.

There’s not a more perfect way to kick off our next “Core Value” Live Like… People are our Purpose, than with baptism Sunday.

Today we get the wonderful privilege of celebrating with our church family their bold declaration of faith in Christ with baptism.
