Race, culture, gender, age, interests, beliefs - there are so many things that separate and divide humanity and yet there are way more similarities that unify us. The culture of the Kingdom of God was never meant to assimilate our uniqueness into one homogenous expression but to put the richness and beauty of God's handiwork on full display as a mosaic masterpiece. As we continue our journey through the book of Acts, gleaning insight from the formation and mission of the New Testament church, Pastor Tim unpacks how we are presented with the opportunity to consider our own perspectives and prejudices and to lean into making our lives a reflection of God's intention.

Have you ever been so confident, so sure of yourself or sure of your plans, only to discover that what you had believed was all wrong. Maybe you thought you were going to ace the test, only to discover all the questions were ones you couldn't answer. Maybe you were confident in the direction you were headed only to discover you'd gotten turned around and were now way off course. As we continue our walk through the book of Acts, Pastor Steve unpacks the story of one man who was confident he was doing the Lord's work and another who thought he was unqualified, only for each to discover they were wrong.

When was the last time you felt like an "OUTSIDER”? Like you didn’t understand what was happening, that you were on the fringe, out of place, like you didn’t belong? Maybe you can remember being new to Christianity, when all the scriptures, practices and church culture was new and confusing to you. Feeling like an OUTSIDER is never a comfortable place to be, and a feeling we often try to avoid if we can. As we continue our journey through the book of Acts we'll see that it's always been Jesus' mandate for the church, since its inception, from the very beginning, to extend his invitation for SPIRITUAL OUTSIDERS to become KINGDOM INSIDERS, from “Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and to the ends of the earth”

This week we're continuing our expository journey through the book of Acts. In Acts 4 we see the response of the disciples to the religious rulers of the day, as they decide to follow God's call on their life, despite what they are being told to do. Today we ask the question "What level of devotion has God called us to?"

Have you ever wanted something so badly and finally got it, only to find out it wasn't what your really needed? We all have! Sometimes it leads to disappointment. Sometimes it leads to the discovery of something greater than we could have ever imagined. This week, as we continue our journey through the book of Acts; examining the discipleship of the first Christian believers and the fledgling formation of the New Testament church, we'll draw inspiration and application for our lives from the story of a man who's wants were greatly exceeded when God got involved.

This week we're continuing our expository journey through the book of Acts; chapter by chapter, verse by verse. As we examine the discipleship of the first Christian believers and fledgling formation of the early New Testament church, we'll also find deep and meaningful inspiration and application for our lives and the culture we live in today. This week, Pastor Tim talks about the arrival of what the disciples had been told to go and wait for, and how we need that same experience today.
