The Name of Jesus (Acts 3:1-4:12) | Acts | Adam Woods (Ep. 262)

There is still real, life-changing power in the name of Jesus—and it can meet your deepest need today. In Acts 3–4, a lame beggar is healed “in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,” turning an ordinary day into a moment of transformation and worship. Peter shows that money, religion, and self-help can’t do what Jesus alone does: forgive sin, change hearts, and give us a new identity. That miracle becomes a bridge to the message. Peter calls people to repent, turn to God, and receive “times of refreshing” in Jesus’ name, even as religious leaders push back against the exclusive claim that “there is no other name…by which we must be saved.” We’re sent to carry His name into our homes, schools, workplaces, and neighborhoods.

We Are Family (Acts 2:42-47) | Acts | Adam Woods (Ep. 261)

God’s plan isn’t perfect people, it’s a devoted family. In this message, “We Are Family,” we walk through Acts 2:42–47 to see what everyday life looked like for the very first church family. Acts shows a Spirit-filled people devoted to four priorities: God’s Word, real fellowship, remembering Jesus, and prayer—and that devotion begins to shape how they live. We explore how that devotion overflows into open-handed generosity, everyday togetherness, and deep, resilient joy that makes the gospel visible in a lonely world. Ultimately, this sermon points us back to Jesus at the center: we’re not saved by our devotion or generosity, but by grace through faith in Him—and from that grace we learn to live as an Acts 2 family today.

What Makes a Mom (Exodus 1-3) | Austin Garrett

When life feels harsh or unfair, it can be hard to see how God is at work behind the scenes. This Mother’s Day message explores the story of five women in Exodus 1–3 whose courage and faith helped save a baby named Moses and shape the future of God’s people. Through Shiphrah, Puah, Jochebed, Miriam, and Pharaoh’s daughter, we see how God uses women to protect, praise, preserve, and provide in ways that often go unnoticed but never go unused. This sermon speaks to the joy and pain of motherhood, the grief of unmet longings, and the reality that many women “mother” through spiritual influence, not just biology. You’ll be invited to name the women who have stood in the gap for you, to see motherhood as Kingdom work, and to trust the God who draws us “out of the water” into a new life with Jesus. The main passage for this message is Exodus 1–2. Series: Special Message Speaker: Austin Garrett Scripture: Exodus 1-3 CONNECT:  Looking to connect with us?

What Shall We Do? (Acts 2:22–24, 36–41) | ACTS | Adam Woods (Ep. 259)

What do you do when you finally see that Jesus isn’t just a religious idea but the risen Lord who gave His life for you? This message from Acts 2 walks through Peter’s powerful sermon, the crowd’s response, and the clear, biblical answer to the question, “Brothers, what shall we do?” You’ll see why good behavior, religion, or self-help can’t heal what’s broken at the core, and why only Jesus—who lived, died, rose, and now reigns—can deal with your sin and give you new life. Adam explains what repentance really is, why baptism is the first step of faith, and how stories like Noah’s ark point ahead to salvation through Jesus. Whether you’re wrestling with shame, trying to find purpose, or ready to stop running from God, this message invites you to walk through the one open door Jesus has provided and begin a life of following Him.

Huddle To Herald (Acts 2:1-36) | Acts | Adam Woods (Ep. 258)

What if the biggest danger for a healthy church isn’t bad doctrine but staying in the huddle and never speaking up about Jesus? In “Huddle to Herald,” Adam Woods walks through Acts 2:1–36 and the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit filled the apostles and turned a scared huddle into bold witnesses. You’ll hear how God used wind, fire, and languages to launch the mission, and how Peter’s first sermon declared that Jesus lived, died, rose, and now reigns as Lord and Messiah. This message from The Crossing in Milton, DE shows that the Spirit doesn’t create spectators; He creates heralds—ordinary people who open their mouths about Jesus in ordinary places. Rooted in Acts 2 and pointing toward the call to repentance and baptism, the sermon invites you to identify your “one” and trust the Spirit to use your simple obedience.
