The Preaching in Acts 3 - Darren Rowse

Together Togather - Carly Cassidy

Together Togather: The Mission of the Gathered Church What if the most powerful thing the church could do isn't found in individual heroism, but in simply showing up together? This Missions Month, Carly Cassidy explores five key passages from Acts that reveal how God's mission has always been communal. From the empowering of the disciples at Pentecost to the sending of Paul and Barnabas from Antioch, we see a consistent pattern: the kingdom advances through the gathered church. We gather together as the church so that more people may be gathered into the kingdom of God. Mission isn't meant to be done alone — it's the calling of the whole church. Key Passages: • Acts 1:8 — Mission begins in worship • Acts 2:42-47 — Mission happens in community • Acts 4:32-35 — Mission requires partnership • Acts 13:2-3 — Mission gathers people • Acts 14:26-28 — Mission is for all of us 👉 To get questions for small group discussions on this sermon, check out our blog at https://one.org.au/blog/together-togather Connect with us: WEBSITE: https://one.org.au INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/one._church FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/churchone We pray that this message was an encouragement for you.

The Persecution - Tim Horman

What if you're not meant to just watch from the sidelines? In Acts 6-7, we meet Stephen—a brand new believer who moves from learner bystander to empowered agent in a matter of weeks. Full of the Spirit, he does what Jesus did: preaching, healing, and shining with God's glory. This Pentecost Sunday, Tim Horman challenges us with a provocative question: if the same Holy Spirit who filled Stephen is available to us today, what might God want to do in and through our lives? It's time to stop making excuses and start stepping into the authority and power that's already ours in Christ. 👉 To get questions for small group discussions on this sermon, check out our blog at https://one.org.au/blog/persecution Connect with us: WEBSITE: https://one.org.au INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/one._church FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/churchone We pray that this message was an encouragement for you.

The Presence - Jess Hammond

What do you do when your faith puts you in danger? When standing up for Jesus could cost you everything? In Acts 4, Peter and John face their first taste of persecution—arrested, threatened, and ordered to stop preaching about Jesus. Their response wasn't to play it safe or back down. Instead, they gathered their community and prayed for one thing: MORE boldness. In this message, Jess Hammond unpacks the remarkable prayer meeting that followed their release, exploring three powerful realities for us today: • Fearing God more than fearing people • Living in complete dependence on the Holy Spirit • Being filled afresh again and again The early church understood something we often forget: we are cracked pots that leak and evaporate. We need to keep coming back to the source to be renewed, strengthened, and empowered for the work God has for us. This isn't a message about trying harder—it's an invitation to open your hands, loosen your grip on control, and let God fill you with exactly what you need today. 👉 To get questions for small group discussions on this sermon, check out our blog at https://one.org.au/blog/presence-acts Connect with us: WEBSITE: https://one.org.au INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/one._church FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/churchone We pray that this message was an encouragement for you.

The Preaching in Acts 3 - Darren Rowse

What happens when a man who hasn't walked in 40 years suddenly starts leaping in the temple courts? A crowd gathers, questions hang in the air, and Peter seizes the moment to preach about Jesus. In this message from Acts 3, Darren Rowse explores how Peter's second sermon didn't need a clever opening line — the miracle itself was the message. We see how transformation creates curiosity, how Peter preached as a "wounded healer," and how Jesus continues his work through ordinary people who have encountered him. Peter offers three things to the crowd (and to us): repentance as turning toward God, times of refreshing as breathing space, and the promise that one day all things will be restored. Where do you see yourself in this story? At the gate feeling stuck? Leaping after transformation? Standing with empty hands but carrying Jesus' presence? Or in the crowd, just curious? 👉 To get questions for small group discussions on this sermon, check out our blog at https://one.org.au/blog/preaching-acts Connect with us: WEBSITE: https://one.org.au INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/one._church FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/churchone We pray that this message was an encouragement for you.
