Acts 28 is not, as Winston Churchill once said, the beginning of the end it is merely the end of the beginning. The book of Acts has taken us on a journey from a small huddled mass of 120 people to turning the world upside down in a mere 29 years. In toda

Why do we go through storms? Especially when we are trying to be obedient and follow the will of God in our lives...why do the storms still come? In Acts 27, Paul is in a storm that causes a shipwreck. Jesus said Paul was to go to Rome to testify about Hi

In Acts 24-26, Paul is examined by Felix, Festus, and Agrippa II. As Paul talked about righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come there were two very different reactions from his examiners. We still find these same reactions today. It is still t

In today's text Paul begins making his defense before the Sanhedrin; however there is a problem...his flesh has been activated so he is now self-directed and self-protective. See what the Lord does to get him back on track.

What should we do when we seem to be getting conflicting signals from the Holy Spirit about direction? How do we decipher our internal leaning and the well-intentioned advice we receive from others about direction? In today's sermon, Paul receives some we

In Acts 18, Paul arrives in Corinth a beaten and fatigued man. However, God took steps to encourage Paul in order to give him the strength to keep going forward. It is easy for us to believe when we are experiencing mountaintop experiences that God is the

Should we get our teaching from more than one well? How do we decide which teachers deserve our listening to them and which ones we should ignore? Are worldly philosophies ever truly satisfying? Today's text tells us how and why we should handle and exami

How can we be strategic in our missionary and ministry efforts? Why is is important to establish a beachhead? How do we keep from merely reacting to our circumstances? In today's text we see how God established a beachhead in Europe and how Paul and Silas

In Acts 15, certain people suggest that for one to truly be saved they must be circumcised and for one to truly be sanctified they must obey the Law of Moses. The church forms a council in Jerusalem to discuss this matter. Ultimately they decide a supplem

In Acts 14, Paul is warned about the possibility of being stoned in Iconium so he escapes and then he is not warned about the possibility in Lystra whereupon he is stoned and presumed dead. Why the warning in Iconium, but not in Lystra? Should we also exp

Did I choose to believe in Jesus because I became persuaded He was my only hope and source of salvation or did God make me choose to believe in Jesus by divine appointment? Some verses seem to indicate the choice is mine to make; others seem to indicate t

Some people pray for a spouse...a child...a healing...and then they have a dramatic providential story of how that prayer was answered. However, we all know people who prayed just as earnestly and they never found that spouse...never had that child...neve

Do you think you have any prejudices? Most of us like to think we have moved beyond prejudice and pride...but have we really moved on? Sometimes the Lord reveals to us, like He reveals to Peter in Chapter 10 of the Book of Acts, that we are not quite as f

Christianity's greatest adversary has now become its greatest ally in the conversion of Saul. Surprisingly, Saul is colossally ineffective when he first sets out to preach the gospel...why? Meanwhile, Peter mistakenly believes he has for the most part ove

The conversion of Saul on the Road to Damascus is a pivotal moment in western history. Why did God choose the legalistic self-righteous Pharisees to become His great Apostle of Faith? What can we learn from God's choosing of the unexpected to do the inexp

Acts 8:26-40 tells of of the encounter between Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch. What do we learn about personal evangelism from this encounter and what does this encounter tell us about those with diminished opportunities of hearing the gospel?

Acts 6:8-7:60 concerns the martyrdom of Stephen. Stephen's sermon, the longest sermon in the Bible by a person other than Jesus, is not a sermon which calls people to repentance. Instead, his sermon warns of judgment and explains why such judgment is comi

How far are we willing to go to rescue the perishing? Are we willing to endure hardship and risk danger? Why do we often find ourselves with a lack of compassion toward the lost world? The early church built bridges; today's church builds walls. What are
