Growing Pains (Acts 6:1-7) - July 12, 2026

Grandview Church in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Message by Jeremy McQuoid, July 12, 2026. Growing Pains (Acts 6:1-7). Church growth is a wonderful thing, but it can also create challenges. With the sheer numbers and diversity of people who were entering the church, some believers' care needs were being overlooked. How could the apostles keep preaching and expanding the work of the gospel, while also meeting all the needs of the church? Acts 6 outlines the problem and the solution the apostles found, which enabled the gospel to grow back then and can help it grow today.

Is God Really at Work Among Us? (Acts 5:12-42) - July 5, 2026

Grandview Church in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Message by Jeremy McQuoid, July 5, 2026. Is God Really at Work Among Us? (Acts 5:12-42). The book of Acts teaches us that the gospel is meant to grow. But how can we measure its growth? It's more than just numbers and statistics. Acts 5:12-42 shows us several key signs that tell us if the gospel is growing at Grandview. How do we measure up?

Stop Playing Around with God! (Acts 5:1-11) - June 28, 2026

Grandview Church in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Message by Jeremy McQuoid, June 28, 2026. Stop Playing Around with God! (Acts 5:1-11). A shocking story interrupts all the wonderful accounts of the growth of the Gospel in Acts. While there was huge generosity in the Christian community, there were some who were pretending to be more godly than they really were. Still, nothing prepares us for the horrific account of Ananias and Sapphira dropping dead under God's judgement. How can we understand God's seeming harshness here, and what is Luke trying to teach us about the fear of the Lord?

Christian Unity, Generosity, and Leadership (Acts 4:32-37) - June 21, 2026

Grandview Church in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Message by Jon Cleland, June 21, 2026. Christian Unity, Generosity, and Leadership (Acts 4:32-37). This Sunday, we are continuing our series, The Spreading Flame, as we study Acts 4:32–37. This passage gives us a picture of what life looked like for the early church. Based in their belief in Christ’s resurrection and their union with Christ, the Christians also had unity with one another and were generous in how they cared for each other. This passage also shows us how belief in Christ is lived out by Christian leaders and hints at how different Christian communities need to function differently. Overall, this passage challenges us to ask – does my belief in Christ shape the way I think about and live in community with other Christians?

Grandview Church in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Message by Jeremy McQuoid, June 7, 2026. The Secret of Gospel Growth (Acts 4:1-31). How does the gospel grow? We know in Acts that it is intended to.
