Acts Series #28 -- Acts 10:1-23 -- "When's the last time you head the voice of God?" 21:25

2h ago21:25

21:25

Send us a Text Message. So "More Than Bread," is a podcast that is seriously convicted that there are no words we need to hear more than we need to hear the Words of God. Because the stuff of life is not enough to give us life. We need more than relational stuff or vocational stuff…we definitely need more than luxury, comfort and control stuff. We …

Send us a Text Message. Today as we finish up Acts 9, we get another look at the impact of the early church and the transformation of people!

3h ago21:21

21:21

Send us a Text Message. In this episode, we will focus on one small statement in Acts 9. It is a small statement with great significance. Are you ready? Here it is... "You have been chosen." What comes to mind when you hear those words? "You have been chosen." Well you might say, it depends. Chosen for what? If you get a registered letter from the …

2h ago19:42

19:42

Send us a Text Message. Lost people matter to God. Your neighbors, coworkers, classmates and friends matter to God. Your enemies matter to God. Acts 8 is a reminder that not only did Jesus go the cross because lost people matter to God, even after the cross he will do everything he can to bring people to Jesus to find life in the Kingdom of God. Lo…

Acts Series #24 -- Acts 8:1-8 -- "I surrender to you Jesus..." 21:39

6h ago21:39

21:39

Send us a Text Message. Acts 7-8 describe a defining moment for the church. Stephen's moment of sacrifice defined our movement as a movement of people who were full of faith, and full of the Spirit, full of grace, and full of power. Stephen's ending moments defined our movement as a movement of people who were fully joyfully surrendered to their Ki…

Acts Series #23 -- Acts 7:51-60 -- "If I give it to Him, will God waste my life?" 20:48

10h ago20:48

20:48

Send us a Text Message. One reason why reading the book of Acts is so important, is because it's a reminder of something significant. We read Acts and we can hear, maybe ever so faintly hear, this call that echoes down through the centuries... "There is a cause, there is a story being written that is worthy of your life." As I read the ending of St…

Acts Series #22 -- Acts 7:1-51 -- "Is 4 minutes for God, worth my life?" 21:33

8d ago21:33

21:33

Send us a Text Message. If I lay it all on the line, God’s gonna waste my life. That's the thought that comes to mind when I read Stephen's sermon in Acts 7. Sure Stephen was filled with passionate courage and preached it straight to the Jewish religious leaders. But then look at what happened. And we think, "If I say yes to God, he's going to send…

Acts Series #21 -- Acts 6:3-15 -- "God uses ordinary people...like me." 20:21

1h ago20:21

20:21

Send us a Text Message. Acts chapter 6 is a turning point in our movement. Up until Acts 6, the only names you ever hear about is Peter and John, once in awhile James. Everyone else is part of a group, or just a number. But after Acts 6 it changes. After Acts 6, everyone has a mission. Ministry is handed off from a few leaders to everyone. In chapt…

Acts Series #20 -- Acts 6:1-8 -- "An unstoppable force... AND an unspeakable mess?" 20:52

1d ago20:52

20:52

Send us a Text Message. As we dig into Acts 6, here is the first thought that comes to my mind. Sometimes the church is both an unstoppable force and an unspeakable mess. The church in Acts was an amazing movement, full of power and courage, a joy and generosity that would just knock the spiritual socks off your feet. But it wasn't pure. It wasn't …

Acts Series #19 -- Acts 5:40-42 -- "Thanks for the suffering?" 20:42

2d ago20:42

20:42

Send us a Text Message. In Acts chapter 5, we find the early church experiencing intense persecution from the religious authorities. The apostles have been arrested, flogged, and commanded to stop speaking about Jesus. But instead of being silenced and scared, they rejoiced that they were counted worthy to suffer disgrace for the Name. Can you imag…

Acts Series #18 -- Acts 5:12-42 -- "If it is of God..." 20:30

5d ago20:30

20:30

Send us a Text Message. In Acts 5, a religious leader by the name of Gamliel, let loose with some wisdom on the Jewish religious leaders. He warned them to leave Peter and John alone because if this movement was not of God, it would die out. But if it was of God...they would find themselves fighting against God! The church in Acts was of God. It wa…

Acts Series #17 -- Acts 5:1-16 -- "Time to get real with our sin..." 21:29

6d ago21:29

21:29

Send us a Text Message. To turn the world upside down, we must get real with our sin. We have to take off our masks and get real with our sin. When we get real with our sin, grace happens and life is transformed. If you grew up in the church, and you are wearing a mask of spirituality that hides the sin in your heart, then you don't like the story …

Acts Series #16 -- Acts 4:31-5:11 -- "Can we get real? What is real church?" 21:31

7d ago21:31

21:31

Send us a Text Message. This episode is about stuff and our masks and getting real with each other and God. And a little bit about what sometimes happens when God gets real with us! One of the amazing things about people giving up their stuff is that stuff is one of the most secure and effective masks we wear. Right? Because if we have stuff on the…

Acts Series #15 -- Acts 4:1-31 -- "It's ok to be ordinary, as long as I've been with Jesus!" 20:28

8d ago20:28

20:28

Send us a Text Message. Some of you think that there is simply no way God can do anything of significance through you. You beg off every time He extends His hand of partnership, because you are just an ordinary nobody, a common anybody. You don't have the training for this or the experience for that. But the most important question is, "Are you wil…

Acts Series #14 -- Acts 4:1-31 -- "Have you ever been shaken by God?" 20:10

9d ago20:10

20:10

Send us a Text Message. When I read Acts 4, my first thought is this, "Before we turn the world upside-down, God may need to shake-up our church! In Acts 4, there's a prayer meeting that shook a building. We'll actually the Spirit of God did the shaking and I can’t help but ask, "God do you have it in you to do it one more time? Would You shake us …

Send us a Text Message. I want to dance, but even more I want to see those around me dance.

13d ago21:13

21:13

Send us a Text Message. As we dive into Acts 3, we encounter one of favorite early church moments, a truly iconic miracle, the story of a lame beggar who became a dancing cripple. In fact, I’ve used that as my user name on more than occasion, because in the end, aren’t we all just dancing cripples? And I don't know if you've noticed it or not, but …

Acts Series #11 -- Acts 1-2 (reprise) -- "The Breath of God is for you!" 21:46

14d ago21:46

21:46

Send us a Text Message. "Wait for the Spirit," Jesus said. Then the Spirit came and the church was birthed. It was a church of humble power and courageous generosity, a church that lived against the grain of society but loved so deeply many in that culture were compelled to join them. It became a church that beat down the gates of hell to rescue ne…

Send us a Text Message. I want to live the uncommon life that comes from an uncommon encounter with the living God. And as much as I want to see signs and wonders like the healing of bodies; even more I hunger to see the healing and renovation of hearts. I hunger to see the healing of 10's of 1000's of hearts; the kind of wholesale renovation that …

Acts Series #9 -- Acts 2:16-47 -- "The church (as Jesus envisioned) is the hope of the world...." 20:32

17d ago20:32

20:32

Send us a Text Message. Acts 2:42-47 is the original destination for the church. Don't get me wrong, the Acts 2 church was just as full of imperfect people as we are today. The Acts 2 church would make mistakes just like we do today. But there was a freshness of Spirit and when that Spirit is let loose in the church, I believe the church is the hop…

Acts Series #8 -- Acts 2:13-20 -- "Set our hearts on fire with your Spirit!" 20:48

20:48

Send us a Text Message. What if it's true that God offers us His presence in the same the same way, he offered it at Pentecost? What if a group of people could be so filled with the Spirit that the world was changed...turned upside down? What if what happened in Acts 2, could happen today? Would we want it? That day in the upper room as the Spirit …

Send us a Text Message. We can be filled with many different things...good and bad. What are you filled with today? It's an uncommon call to be filled with the Spirit of God. We're not exactly sure what it means, but we do know what it's like to be filled with something. If someone says that they are filled with grief, or filled with fear, despair,…

Send us a Text Message. Imagine you had a chance to be there in the upper room on Pentecost when the Spirit of God came...but you missed it. Imagine you missed it. You weren't there. You didn't join the group. Got distracted. Got scared. Other things were more important. You missed it. What did they have to do in order to receive the promise? Just …

Acts Series #5 -- Acts 1:1-11 -- "Waiting for something more..." 20:31

23d ago20:31

20:31

Send us a Text Message. When God asks us to wait, it's always a word of hope. When God says, WAIT, He's promising you that there will be a tomorrow. Wait is a word of hope. God's Wait is always tied to a promise, which simply means there is still more to come. Some of you have been waiting on promises you believe God gave you years ago, maybe decad…

Send us a Text Message. "The Holy Spirit will come upon you," Jesus said. "And you will be baptized, immersed in the Holy Spirit. You will receive power and you will be my witnesses everywhere you go." I love my church. I see God at work here. But if there's anything that I know we need more of, it is the power of God. So if we want to turn the wor…

Send us a Text Message. Before I recorded this episode, I was listening to a playlist that I put together and the title of the playlist is simply "Jesus." The song that was playing before I recorded is a song by Terrian entitled, "Honestly We Just Need Jesus." I would add it to the episode if I was better at editing. But instead, click the song and…

Acts Series #2 -- Acts 17:1-6 -- "An upside-down world? Lord do it again!" 21:11

28d ago21:11

21:11

Send us a Text Message. We want to live in an upside down world because what we have come to experience as right-side-up is all wrong. So let's start with that moment when we were first called, "those who turned the world upside down." It happened a few years after the resurrection, and it's recorded in Acts 17:1-6. That's why every time I read the…

MTB #293 -- Luke 10 -- "Jesus...It's all about Jesus!" 21:12

29d ago21:12

21:12

Send us a Text Message. This is an utterly simple reality. Jesus does not have my heart if He does not get my time. I am not an apprentice of Jesus loving like Jesus, and sent like Jesus if I do not long to be with Jesus. And it’s a journey, not a curriculum; it’s a journey. This journey you are on, of apprenticing Jesus, is a life-long journey. It…

Send us a Text Message. The ascension tells us who Jesus is today and where Jesus is today. The ascension tells us what Jesus is doing today. Who is he? He is the Lord of heaven & earth; ruler of all the nations, King of the Universe, and the Head of the Church. Where is he? Jesus is seated at the right hand of the throne of God, a position of auth…

Lent Series #41 -- Luke 24 -- "Is He your King?" 19:59

19:59

Send us a Text Message. This may be a difficult episode for some of us to love. It's all about the ascension of Jesus. The ascension is that moment described in the gospels and the book of Acts when Jesus went up to heaven. But the language of ascension is not just a “going up” language. That language is used, Jesus going up, coming up, ascending. …

Send us a Text Message. In this episode we will ponder two different groups (and two specific people) who interacted with the resurrected Jesus, women and family; specifically Mary Magdalene and James. If there was anyone there for Jesus in the hardest moments of his life it was Mary. If there was anyone's change of mind that proves (at least for m…

Send us a Text Message. Do you believe? When you look around you at the state of the world, or maybe the state of your family, or your life, do you ever wonder who is driving this thing we call "the world" and can that someone be trusted? Can I place my life in his hands? Does he care about me? Can I trust his character and his competence? I call i…

1M ago19:50

19:50

Send us a Text Message. It's one of my all-time favorite moments in the life of Jesus, breakfast on the beach at sunrise with his friends. But for Peter, it's a hard moment...a moment when he comes face to face with the facts of his failure. Jesus knows Peter has messed up. Peter knows Peter's messed up. Peter's pretty sure that Peter's gonna mess …

20:22

Send us a Text Message. Can you imagine what would happen if we had a viral outbreak of Easter? When God let Jesus loose on the earth, people were amazed; amazed at his birth, amazed at his life, his teaching, his miracles, and his compassion. What if, because resurrection power has been let loose in the world; what if because of the outpouring of …

Send us a Text Message. How many here have ever had a good movie or a good book spoiled because somebody told you the ending? Like, "Did you realize that the guy in the Sixth Sense is actually dead?" Sorry. On the other hand, in real life, there are times when knowing the ending could make the middle a little easier to live through. Sometimes would…

Send us a Text Message. Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday are the celebration pillars of Holy Week. But today isn’t Friday or Sunday. It’s Saturday. The in-between day. The Saturday between Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday goes by various names, Holy Saturday, Black Saturday, even Hallelujah Saturday in Portugal. I think of it as Silent Saturd…

Send us a Text Message. Can you guess the most famous, the most well known logo of all time? From tattoos to jewelry, from huge monuments that tower over cities to a tracing in the air over a forehead or a heart, from works of art to a form scratched on the walls of catacombs -- the caves where persecuted Christians hid, it's the cross. You see it …

Send us a Text Message. John 17 is Jesus last time of prayer before the cross and in it we see the dream on the heart of Christ, was a dream for our common unity, that we would love each other like Jesus loves us. And yet how well have we responded to his prayer. We have been so easily divided, race, covid perspectives, economics, when it comes to …

1M ago20:43

20:43

Send us a Text Message. What did Jesus do on Wednesday of Holy Week? The New Testament is silent. But I have to believe that Jesus was thinking about Judas, praying for Judas. In less than two days, Jesus will be star player, center stage, in an event that will fulfill the deepest purposes of God and split history in two. In a few hours he will be …

Lent Series #30 -- Mark 11:12-25 -- "Where are your sacred places?" 20:43

1M ago20:43

20:43

Send us a Text Message. Where is your sacred space? When Jesus died on the cross, the veil in the temple, which kept everyone away from the very holy presence of God, that curtain was torn in two., from the top down. We usually focus on the message in that moment, as an invitation to come. You're invited. Come into God's presence. But what if God t…

21:12

Send us a Text Message. I think most of us think that prayer is a good thing. Something we should do more of... when we are able. But few of us think of prayer as a necessary thing. Most of us think that the reason we aren't loving our neighbors, our workmates, classmates, family and friends well is simply because we don't have time. If I just had …

Send us a Text Message. We are only a few days away from the start of Holy Week, Palm Sunday. In Luke 19:41, there is a picture of moment, as Jesus came closer to Jerusalem and saw the city ahead, He began to weep. I can't get that scene out of my mind. It's a moving party, a celebration; people yelling, shuffling around trying to get a glimpse. Al…

Send us a Text Message. Something happened when Jesus died on the cross. Something deep down in the foundations of reality shifted. It isn't just a story that shows the soft side of God. It was cosmic redemption -- grace started working it's way backwards and forwards through time, as God began to reconcile all things to himself "through the blood …

20:18

Send us a Text Message. I wonder how often we miss Christ's invitation to join him in a miracle because we think he's leaving the solution up to us. So, we count our coins, strategize our plans, and work up our gumption only to realize, "Yeah, we can't do that. We don't have enough. We can't give what we don't have." Jesus is looking for a yes and …

Send us a Text Message. Here's a good legacy question. How will I be remembered? That's a great question, an appropriate question to ask, but I would suggest that there's an even better legacy question, not just how will I be remembered, but "Who will remember me?" I’ve been thinking about that a bit lately. Unless you are a world-changer, book-wri…

20:28

Send us a Text Message. I think part of what Jesus is saying in Matthew 25, is that when you come across those who are in need, I don't want you to think of them as the least of these. I want you to think of them as family. They are not just the "least of these" they are family. In fact, they are not just family, they are Jesus, to us. So... Go Lov…

Send us a Text Message. There was a moment in the life of Peter, before he was a Jesus-follower, a fishing boat moment that lead to an "if you say so Jesus" moment. Are you an if-you-say-so-Jesus person? Or do you always know better? It’s hard to surrender when I think I always know best. This moment was a test for Peter. Jesus is looking for peopl…

Send us a Text Message. My sin is not just my failure to reach God's standards, it's a failure to treasure his invitation; a lack of trust in his ways; an unwillingness to surrender. An un-surrendered sin-soaked soul is life's greatest problem. It leads to addiction, ravages marriages and breaks families, it hardens hearts, creates anxiety filled s…
