Baptism of the Holy Spirit | Acts 18:24-19:7

The Beginning of Wisdom | Acts 19:18-41

The believers in Ephesus didn't just believe in Jesus, they developed a fear of the Lord. That reverence led them to repent, confess their sins, and burn the things that once held their allegiance. When God's people hunger for righteousness and surrender everything to Him, He responds by moving in powerful ways.

Take Up the Mantle | Acts 19:8-17

In Ephesus, people carried pieces of clothing from Paul to the sick and saw miraculous healing take place. But Acts 19 reminds us that the power was never in the object, it was in the Spirit of God moving through surrendered believers. This sermon explores obedience, the timing of God, the mantle of the Holy Spirit, and the invitation for believers to walk in the authority Jesus has given them.

Speaking in Tongues | The Divine Pattern

After introducing the baptism of the Holy Spirit last week, Pastor Nathan takes a deeper look at one of the most misunderstood gifts of the Spirit: speaking in tongues. Walking through Acts, 1 Corinthians, Romans, and Jude, this message explores what tongues are, why they appear throughout Acts, how they function within the church, and why Paul says not to forbid them. Rather than rejecting the gifts of the Spirit out of fear or misunderstanding, this sermon calls the church to pursue both Spirit and truth, becoming a people strengthened, encouraged, and empowered by the Holy Spirit.

Baptism of the Holy Spirit | Acts 18:24-19:7

Apollos knew the Scriptures. The disciples in Ephesus believed in Jesus. Their hearts were sincere and their understanding was correct, but incomplete. In this week’s sermon, Pastor Nathan challenges the modern church to stop settling for “just enough” Christianity and to rediscover the power of the Holy Spirit. We were never called to simply get in the door, we were called to walk in power.

We Are the Watchmen | Acts 18:1-23

This week we’re wrapping up Paul’s second missionary journey as he leaves Athens for Corinth, where he takes a different approach, relying not on persuasive words but on demonstrations of the Spirit and of power. In this week’s sermon, Pastor Nathan reminds us that we are the watchmen. When God calls us to move, to speak, or to step in, we may worry about looking foolish, but we’re stepping into something He’s already been at work in. It’s not about us; it’s about trusting that God is working through every moment for His glory.
