Strengthening the Disciples

Matthew Molesky

A question on many people’s minds these days is how the church can continue to influence a culture that seems opposed to it in every way. How can the movement of Christianity continue to grow and spread? The answer is through many small moments, where disciples are involved in the work of strengthening one another.

Fresh Courage in Corinth

Matthew Molesky

In this latest sermon in our series, “The Church Multiplies,” we find that like us, and even in the midst of apparent ministry success, the Apostle Paul faced discouragement. And the pathway to his encouragement is the same for us today.

See. Feel. Do. Speak.

Matthew Molesky

The Apostle Paul is a follower of Jesus who had a massive intellect which lead to a powerful speaking ministry across large swaths of the ancient world. Many of us desire to have an impact like him where we live, and with the people we live with. In today’s text, we learn that if we want to speak like Paul spoke, we must first see what he saw and feel what he felt. Acts 17:16-34

Persevere, Step by Step

Matthew Molesky

Life — in particular, the life of a disciple of Jesus — is often filled with overwhelming situations and difficult trials. Jesus promised as much. So how do we persevere? In this story from the life of Paul and Barnabus, we find the answer; namely, step by step. Acts 14:1-28

I Am the Resurrection and the Life - Do You Believe This?

Matthew Molesky

This world is filled with compelling stories, and literally billions of life stories. Yet there is only one story, throughout history, that has witnesses to its truths, and events and promises big enough, to transform and make sense of every other story it comes into contact with. Come, and welcome, to the story of Jesus. Acts 13:14-52

Messengers of the Messiah (pt. 2)

Matthew Molesky

Last Sunday, Pastor Matthew introduced us to the idea of evangelism as “Helping those around us take a step to the right.” We observed four key principles (four ‘P’s) operating in the mission of Paul and Barnabus to rescue people out of the kingdom of darkness and into the kingdom of the Son. This week, we see another foundational principle from Luke’s story, necessary before the work of evangelism can even begin. Namely, the answer to the question: “How are disciples made?”

Matthew Molesky

In this next installment in our series, “The Church Multiplies,” Pastor Matthew walks us through the story of Saul and Barnabus as they launch into a series of travels that will begin the multiplication of the church of Christ Jesus throughout the world. The fundamental principles they adhere to as Messengers of the Messiah are the same that we may joyfully employ today to see the church revive and surge forward. SERMON TEXT: Acts 13:1-52

Is It Really True That “Our God Will Not Be Stopped!”?

Matthew Molesky

Last week we rejoiced in the story of God’s unstoppable kingdom movement, summed up in the proclamation, “Our God Will Not Be Stopped!” But is that really true? How does the grittiness, roadblocks, and detours of our lives match up with the theology we proclaim? And does the Bible address such concerns? Come, and see.

Our God Will Not Be Stopped!

Matthew Molesky

What we are witness to in the story of Acts is God’s passion for the lost, God’s commitment to his mission to save them from darkness, and God’s desire to transfer them from the kingdom of darkness into HIS growing and spreading kingdom, in the name of his Son, by the power of the Holy Spirit. In a phrase, the central theme of the story is that “Our God Will Not Be Stopped."
