In this message, TA walks through Acts 4:32–5:11 and shows that God’s vision for the church is that it would be satisfying, enjoyable, and worth telling others about. Through three specific “ingredients”, Luke shows us what must be essential if we want to be a church that is alive, unified, generous, and serious about holiness.

In this message on Acts 4, TA walks us through Peter and John’s unexpected arrest and bold defense of the hope that was in them. Instead of shrinking back, Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, clearly proclaimed that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus. This passage shows us the essentials for boldly making a defense.

In this message, Trip Lee teaches from Luke 12:22–34 and calls worry what it really is: an unwelcome guest. Jesus doesn’t deny that we have real needs, but he tells us not to invite worry into the equation because it distorts reality and steals peace. Instead, Jesus gives us three reasons worry doesn’t belong.

In this message, TA walks through Acts 3 to show the difference between knowing the right information about Jesus and experiencing real transformation through him.

In this message, TA walks through Acts 2:42-47 and asks whether we want the fruit of the first-century church without the commitment that produced it. While many people desire joy, awe, and meaningful community, the early church experienced those things because they were wholeheartedly devoted. They were all in, together, and unwilling to settle for a convenient or casual version of church. The sermon calls us to stop expecting “pour over taste with Keurig effort” and instead commit ourselves fully to the kind of church God designed.

Due to inclement weather, Watermark Community Church will not be hosting in-person Sunday services. Watch this special Church at Home message as we reflect on the early church in Acts 1 and 2.

In this message, Dave Bruskas walks through Peter’s sermon at Pentecost to help us better understand who Jesus is and why his life, death, and resurrection matter. The sermon shows that while God was at work through Jesus, our sin made the cross necessary. When the crowd realizes this, they ask what to do next, and Peter calls them to repent, be baptized, and follow Jesus. For us today, the invitation is to keep turning to Jesus, enjoy the presence of the Holy Spirit, and live as worshipers and witnesses.

In Sunday’s message from Acts 2, we were reminded that while Pentecost was a unique moment in history, the work of the Holy Spirit did not stop there. Acts 2 shows us a church alive by the Spirit—marked by a shared enjoyment of God’s presence, an urgency for mission, and a sense of awe at what God is doing.

In Sunday’s message from Acts 1, TA reminded us that the Christian life and mission are never meant to be lived in our own strength. Before sending the disciples out as witnesses, Jesus told them to wait for the promised Holy Spirit. Acts 1 shows us that waiting is not passive; it is purposeful preparation for God’s power.

On Sunday, December 28, we won’t gather at the Dallas Campus for our usual services—but church is still on. Church at Home Sunday is your chance to slow down, gather your people, start the new year prayerfully, and get a taste of what church was like in the early first-century Church. In the video below, you will be guided through Watermark’s 10 markers and be given time to reflect with your group on each.
