God Does What Man Cannot

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/fan_mail/new] When man's strength runs out, God's power is just beginning. In Acts 12, Peter is chained in prison with no human hope of escape. The church can't rescue him, so they do the only thing they can—they pray. Then God intervenes. Discover how God waits until our ability is exhausted, why He isn't limited by what limits us, and how He can do in a moment what man cannot do in a lifetime.

Come

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/fan_mail/new] What do you do when the winds are contrary, the waves are rising, and life feels heavier than you ever imagined? In this Father's Day message from Matthew 14:28-29, we explore the simple yet life-changing command of Jesus: "Come." Peter didn't receive an explanation. He didn't receive a detailed plan. He received one word from Christ and had to decide whether he would trust the voice of Jesus more than the storm around him. Whether you're a father carrying the weight of leadership, a believer facing uncertainty, or someone worn down by the burdens of life, this message is a reminder that God's answer is often not an explanation of His plan, but an invitation into His presence. The greatest miracle may not be the storm stopping, but drawing closer to Jesus in the middle of it.  Listen today and discover why one step of obedience can change everything.

The Church Grows

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/fan_mail/new] What does a healthy, growing church really look like? In Acts 11, we discover that church growth is far more than increasing attendance. The believers at Antioch grew through the power of the Gospel, encouragement among the saints, faithful service, and sacrificial giving. As ordinary believers shared Christ, strengthened one another, and gave according to their ability, God expanded their influence far beyond their own city. This message challenges us to move beyond spectatorship and become active participants in what God is doing. The question is not, "How can the church grow?" but rather, "What am I willing to give so God can grow His church through me?" Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/support]

When Your Burden Isn't Enough | Moses, Midian, and God's Breaking Process

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/fan_mail/new] When your burden for God becomes greater than your dependence on God, you're headed for Midian. Moses saw the suffering of Israel and was moved to act. The burden was real. The calling was real. But burden alone could not accomplish what only God could do. Before Moses would stand before Pharaoh, God would spend forty years stripping away self-reliance, pride, and human strength in the wilderness of Midian. In this powerful message from Exodus 2, discover why God often leads burdened people through seasons of breaking, isolation, and preparation. Learn how the wilderness is not God's rejection, but God's classroom. If you've ever wondered why the burden is heavy, the road is long, or the results seem delayed, this message will remind you that God is often preparing the vessel before He pours out His power. Moses spent one day trying to deliver Israel. God spent forty years preparing Moses. The burden was necessary, but the breaking was indispensable.

Am I Standing in God's Way?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/fan_mail/new] When God begins to move, will we follow Him or stand in His way? In Acts 11, Peter returns from the home of Cornelius and immediately faces questions from those who struggled to accept what God was doing. Their focus was not on changed lives, the work of the Holy Spirit, or the spread of the Gospel. Their concern was that God had worked outside the boundaries of their traditions. Rather than responding with pride or defensiveness, Peter carefully explains how God had led him every step of the way. His conclusion was simple and powerful: if God was clearly at work, who was he to oppose Him? This message challenges us to examine our own hearts. Are we allowing tradition, preference, comfort, or human reasoning to keep us from following God's direction? Are we celebrating what God is doing, even when it stretches us beyond what is familiar? Join us as we discover the difference between standing in God's way and surrendering to His will. Learn how humility, obedience, and a willingness to follow God's leading can position us to be part of His work rather than a hindrance to it. This practical study from Acts 11 will challenge every believer to ask one life-changing question: Am I standing in God's way? Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/support]
