Sunday Sermon: Why Pentecost Matters

The events of the day of Pentecost were the fulfillment of Jesus’ promises to the disciples. In obedience to Jesus, the disciples had gathered, prayed, and waited until the promise of the Father came (Acts 1:5). As the disciples waited, and prayed, Jesus kept His word and poured out the Holy Spirit on those who were gathered (v33). The pouring out of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2 is merely the first demonstration of the Holy Spirit’s work in and for the Church of Jesus Christ. The book of Acts continually points out to us the many works the Holy Spirit does on behalf of the Church.. Speaker: Stacy J Ross. Acts 2:1-47. Series: Pentecost: The Promise Of The Father.

Experiencing The Freedom Of God - Audio April 22, 2018
Sadly, many genuine believers in Jesus never come to the place where they experience the freedom of God. As a result their Christian lives are spent in misery and defeat. Rather than their relationship with Jesus providing them with abundant life, it is a source of frustration and discouragement. If this is you today, I have good news for you. God's pla […]
Experiencing The Peace Of God - Audio April 15, 2018
When we talk about peace we often think of peace as a lack of conflict. Peace is when everything in my world is working just as it should. There is no conflict, no pain, no hardship, no struggling, there is nothing bad going on in my world at all. While this may be a type of peace, it is not the kind of peace that the Bible promises us we can have. Instead o […]
Experiencing The Forgiveness Of God - Audio April 8, 2018
One day we will stand face to face with God and have to give an account for our lives. What will we say? What will we do? More importantly, what will He say? What will He do? What can we do to prepare ourselves for that day? How can we be sure that fate doesn’t await us? How can we overcome the fact that we have sinned and are guilty in the courts of Heaven? […]

The Relentless Love Of God - Audio March 25, 2018
Love as an attribute of God is foundational to our understanding of who God is and why God does what He does. Love is a motive that tempers and fuels all that God does in His interaction with humanity. We cannot understand God without understanding God's love. We cannot understand the Gospel without understanding God's love.
Why Salvation Is So Great - Audio March 18, 2018
The main theme of the book of Hebrews is that Jesus is greater. Jesus is greater than Moses. Jesus is greater than the angels. Jesus is greater than the Law. Jesus’ sacrifice is greater than all the sacrifices of the Law. Jesus is the greatest there is and anything we suffer as we serve Jesus is worth it because in the end, we get Jesus. What I want to do to […]
The Worshipping Church - Audio March 11, 2018

The Gifted Church - Audio March 4, 2018
God has made an amazing investment in us. Does it make sense that God would make such a hefty investment in us only to have us drift through life and never really know what it is to live a life of meaning and purpose? It doesn’t to me and it shouldn’t to you. We all need to understand the investment God has made in our lives and the way that has equipped us […]
The Praying Church - Audio February 25, 2018
Of all the things that a church should be, it should be a place of prayer. Rick Warren has said that a prayer-less ministry is a powerless ministry. If our church is to be a church that is used by God to do great things, then it must be a praying church. Great things happen when people pray. Great things will happen in this church when we are a praying churc […]
The Mission Of The Church - Audio February 18, 2018
One of the greatest dangers for any organization, like the Church, is for it to lose sight of its mission. This lost focus will be seen in many ways. It's seen when churches continue to do what they've always done, regardless of if it's effective anymore, because they've always done it. It's seen when a church refuses to try to do an […]
The Power Of The Church - Audio February 11, 2018

There Is Always More - Audio February 4, 2018
What has your pursuit of Jesus been like? Would you say that while you're pursuing Jesus, you'd love to go deeper with Jesus? Many want to go deeper with Jesus but many just don't seem to be able to accomplish this. The deeper life seems almost mythical. Yet in Scripture the deeper life is a reality. Not only is it a reality, it is God's […]

The Need For Deep Disciples - Audio January 21, 2018
By and large we don't expect Christians who have been Christians a while to be able to take a newer Christian and give tips and pointers on how to be a successful Christian. The reason for this lack of expectation is that we have settled for shallow, low expectation Christianity. To go deeper with Jesus we need to move beyond shallow Christianity to dee […]
Rooted In Jesus - Audio January 14, 2018
