SUNDAY - JUNE 7, 2026 "Let the Will of the Lord Be Done" Acts 21:1-16

SUNDAY - JULY 5, 2026 "Paul's Witness" Acts 22:1-22

Paul Revere didn’t become legendary because he won a fight. He became legendary because he carried a message with urgency. That single detail hits differently when we ask what it means to be a Christian witness today, especially as we reflect on the Fourth of July and the approaching 250th anniversary of the United States. We’re not the hero of the story, and we’re not responsible for forcing results, but we are responsible for faithful proclamation while there is still time.  We open Acts 22 and listen to Paul tell his own story, speaking to a hostile crowd and explaining who he was before Christ. He has credentials, training, and zeal, yet the real diagnosis comes into focus when we pair his testimony with Ephesians 2: apart from Jesus, we are dead in trespasses and sins. Then the center of the gospel shines: “But God” makes the dead alive. Salvation is by grace through faith, not by works, not by religious effort, and not by a polished background.  We also talk honestly about conversion stories. Paul’s Damascus Road moment is dramatic, but not everyone’s story is, and that’s fine. The non-negotiables remain: God calls, we repent and believe, we call on the name of the Lord, and we step into the life He appoints. Ephesians 2:10 pushes the question home: if grace saved us, what is grace sending us to do? Listen, share this with a friend, and leave a review to help others find the message.

SUNDAY - JUNE 7, 2026 "Let the Will of the Lord Be Done" Acts 21:1-16

Your friends are crying. The warnings are specific. The outcome sounds brutal. Do you still move forward if you believe God is calling you? We sit in Acts 21 and watch Paul do exactly that, walking toward Jerusalem “constrained by the Spirit” even while believers in Tyre and Caesarea urge him to turn back. The tension is real: godly people can offer sincere counsel and still misunderstand what God is doing, and obedience can feel like stepping into the storm on purpose. We talk through what trusting and obeying actually looks like when the cost is personal. Paul does not chase fame or comfort; he’s ready for imprisonment and even death for the name of the Lord Jesus. Along the way, we slow down on a detail that matters: he seeks out the disciples. This sermon connects Paul’s journey to Christian community, spiritual gifts, and the everyday work of the church. Using Ephesians 4, we explain how God equips the body of Christ to build each other up so we are not tossed around by fear, confusion, or pressure. Then the warning from Agabus lands like a weight. The prophecy is visual, concrete, and unsettling, yet it becomes a moment where resolve spreads through the group until they finally say, “Let the will of the Lord be done.” We close with Hebrews 12 and a simple focus for endurance: look to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith.

SUNDAY - MAY 31, 2026 (SPECIAL GUEST: DUSTIN TUTOR) 2nd Chronicles 7:14

When life feels heavy and the people we love are hurting, we do not need a shallow pep talk. We need a clear path back to God. With our pastor away due to a death in the family, guest preacher Dustin Tudor brings a message that meets a grieving church with both compassion and honesty, then turns the spotlight where it belongs: on our own hearts.  We walk through 2 Chronicles 7:14 as a practical blueprint for spiritual renewal, Christian repentance, and lasting change. We talk about why it is so easy to become an expert at diagnosing everyone else while ignoring the “beam” in our own eye, and why humility is the first step toward experiencing God’s presence and power. Dustin breaks down what it means to pray as a real conversation, how to seek God’s face instead of only asking for His hand, and why “I’m sorry” is not the same thing as repentance that actually changes direction.  The promise is not hype, it is hope: when God’s people humble themselves, pray, seek Him, and turn from sin, God hears, forgives, and heals. If you feel spiritually dry, stuck in the same cycles, or convicted that you have been coasting, let this message call you back to a hungry faith and a surrendered life.
