Passionate but Incomplete | What Apollos Didn't Know | Alex Sands

When the City Is in an Uproar | Acts 19:28–41 | Alex Sands

In this episode, Pastor Alex Sands teaches from Acts 19:28–41, where the gospel confronts the culture of Ephesus and the city erupts into chaos. As the crowd shouts, confusion spreads, and opposition rises, this passage reminds us that God is not shaken by the uproar. When truth challenges false worship, resistance may come — but confusion cannot silence the gospel, crowds cannot overthrow the kingdom, and no chaos can stop the purpose of God. Our Mission “We exist to glorify God by making disciples that CONNECT passionately with God and His family, GROW progressively to spiritual maturity, SERVEselflessly with their gifts and talents, and GOrelentlessly into the world with the life-giving gospel of Jesus Christ.”

In this episode of the Kingdom Life Podcast, Pastor Alex Sands teaches from Acts 19:21–28, where the gospel confronts the idols and culture of Ephesus. As opposition rises, we see that the message of Jesus does more than change hearts — it challenges anything standing against the kingdom of God. Our Mission “We exist to glorify God by making disciples that CONNECT passionately with God and His family, GROW progressively to spiritual maturity, SERVEselflessly with their gifts and talents, and GOrelentlessly into the world with the life-giving gospel of Jesus Christ.”

The Sons of Sceva | The Power That Cannot Be Imitated | Alex Sands

In this episode, Pastor Alex Sands takes us into Acts 19:11–20, where the city of Ephesus encounters the undeniable power of God. As extraordinary miracles happen through Paul, the Seven Sons of Sceva attempt to use the name of Jesus without truly knowing Him — and what happens next shakes the whole city. This passage reveals a powerful truth: the name of Jesus is not a formula to be used, but a Lord to be surrendered to. Join us as we explore real faith, spiritual authority, repentance, and how the word of the Lord continued to grow and prevail. Our Mission “We exist to glorify God by making disciples that CONNECT passionately with God and His family, GROW progressively to spiritual maturity, SERVEselflessly with their gifts and talents, and GOrelentlessly into the world with the life-giving gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Have You Received the Holy Spirit? | Acts 19:1–10 | Alex Sands

When Paul arrived in Ephesus, he met a group of disciples and asked them a question that revealed a surprising gap in their faith: "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" Though these disciples were sincere, they had not yet received the full understanding of the gospel. In this message, Pastor Alex Sands explores the importance of moving beyond surface-level evangelism and helping people grow into the fullness of Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. Join us as we examine Acts 19:1–10 and discover why effective witnessing requires more than asking, "Are you saved?" It requires helping people understand the complete message of Jesus Christ. Scripture: Acts 19:1–10 Our Mission “We exist to glorify God by making disciples that CONNECT passionately with God and His family, GROW progressively to spiritual maturity, SERVEselflessly with their gifts and talents, and GOrelentlessly into the world with the life-giving gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Passionate but Incomplete | What Apollos Didn't Know | Alex Sands

In Acts 18:24–28, we meet Apollos, a gifted and passionate teacher who was fervent in spirit but lacked a full understanding of God's truth. Through the guidance of Priscilla and Aquila, Apollos was equipped with a more complete knowledge of the gospel, allowing him to become even more effective in ministry. In this episode, Pastor Alex Sands examines the danger of incomplete truth, the value of discipleship, and the importance of remaining teachable as we grow in our faith. Discover how God uses His people to help us move from zeal alone to a deeper understanding of His Word.
