What do we do when it appears that all hope is lost? How should we respond when we are persecuted for our faith? What does it look like to trust God and truly rely on Him?

In his sermon, “The Gospel Prevails,” centered on Acts 11:27-12:25, Pastor Josiah answers these questions and others as he shares how like Peter and the first-century church we can turn to Christ, place our faith in Him and trust that He will always be there for us.

No matter what difficulties we face in this life, we know that Christ builds his church and that the gospel will always prevail!

What happens when people join our church who are different than we are? How should we react when other believers have different preferences or opinions about various matters than we do? Are Christians allowed to associate with people who aren’t like them?

In his sermon, “Factions & Family,” centered on Acts 11:1-30, Pastor Jeff Winters (Guest Preacher) addressed these questions as he shared how as Christians, we are commanded to share the good news of Jesus Christ with everyone and be obedient to the Spirit’s leading as Jesus saves a people for himself.

In the Church of Christ there is no such thing as second-class members. As believers, each one of us has been redeemed by Christ regardless of our differences. Therefore, we should ensure that there are no isolating factions or destructive behaviors among our brothers and sisters but rather be committed to following Jesus as a faithful family of believers.

Are Christians still required to follow the dietary restrictions outlined in the Old Testament? How did food restrictions hinder the advancement of the gospel to the Gentiles? How did God use complimentary visions to show Peter that what God has called clean, we cannot call unclean.

In his sermon, “Gospel Reach,” centered on Acts 9:32-10:48, Pastor Josiah answered these questions and others as he shared how God used complimentary visions to show Peter that what God has called clean, we cannot call unclean.
