The Joshua Factor

Date: Sunday, August 26, 2007
Speaker: Brian Shuler
Title: The Joshua Factor

The book of Joshua, full of battles with Canaanites, Cushites, Perizites, and all sorts of other "ites," is often overlooked by Christians, but there's a lot of truth to be gained for those who are willing to look. The parallels between the book of Joshua and the message of Jesus are amazing, from their names, to commissions given, to purposes, to what they accomplished, this message will inspire you to keep going and not give up!

Acts 10:34-48 - Embraced by the Spirit

Date: Sunday, August 19, 2007
Speaker: Michael Fisher
Title: Acts 10:34-48 - Embraced by the Spirit

We've been going through the book of Acts since September 2006, one chapter, one story, at a time, and this week, in Acts 10:34-48, as Peter gets to Cornelius's house, he shares about what's been going on in Jerusalem with the birth of the church, and the Holy Spirit falls on (or embraces) the Gentile believers. With this act, God showed that He is not partial to any but wants to pour out His salvation and power on all who are hungry for Him.

Speaker: Michael Fisher
Title: The Acts of the Holy Spirit - Acts 10:1-16 - Blessed are the Pure in Heart

We've been going through the book of Acts since September 2006, one chapter, one story, at a time, and this week, Michael Fisher takes a look at Acts 10:1-16. In one of the coolest stories in the Bible, God shows himself to two men of pure hearts. Cornelius, a gentile who feared God, and Peter, a man of simplicity before God, receive visions and angelic visitations directing them to meet.

Acts 9:33-43 - Follow Me and I Will Make You...

Date: Sunday, July 29, 2007
Speaker: Michael Fisher
Title: The Acts of the Holy Spirit - Acts 9:33-43 - Follow Me and I Will Make You...

Continuing on in the book of Acts, in chapter 9, verses 33-43, Peter is walking in some impressive power to heal sicknesses and raise the dead, but Peter wasn't always a great hero of faith. He made his fair share of mistakes, from rebuking God to cursing Him at his crucifixion, but He never quit. Too often, when people get corrected they either leave or they decide to stay but give up trying to grow. Peter didn't do either. He stuck around and changed and became a man of God that we can all emulate.
