The Book of Acts ends, but the message Paul carried does not. In Acts 28:23–31, Paul reaches Rome; some receive the truth while others reject it, and salvation continues moving outward to the Gentiles. In the grand finale of Acts Unlocked, Pastor Curt challenges us to know the message God has entrusted to us, receive it personally, and faithfully carry it outward to those who need Christ and forward to those coming behind us.

The message reached us. Don’t let it stop with us.

In Acts 26, Paul stands before King Agrippa as a prisoner—but he refuses to allow his circumstances to cancel his mission. What begins as Paul's legal defense becomes an opportunity to testify about Christ and challenge those listening to consider what they believe.

In “Still On Mission,” Pastor Curt McFarland shows us that we don't have to wait for life to become easier before Christ can use us. Our circumstances may change, our plans may change, and we may find ourselves somewhere we never expected to be—but we still belong to Christ and represent Him.

Through Paul's example, we'll discover how to remember who we are, recognize the people within our influence, and ultimately point them toward Jesus Christ.

Starting well is one thing. Remaining faithful through hardship, disappointment, responsibility, and change is another.

In Acts 20:22–32, Paul prepares to leave the Ephesian elders knowing that suffering awaits him, and challenges them to faithfully guard what God has entrusted to them. But Paul doesn't leave them depending on their own strength—he commends them to God and to the word of His grace.

Still Standing is a message about choosing faithfulness, guarding God's truth, and trusting the grace of God to sustain us for the long haul. Because ultimately, God isn't simply interested in how we start—He desires that, by His grace, we remain faithful to the end.

When Jesus became greater in the eyes of the Ephesian believers, they stopped hiding their former practices and willingly surrendered what once controlled them. Through Acts 19:17–20, Pastor Curt explains why the gospel does more than change our beliefs—it changes what we are willing to leave behind. Genuine transformation is not how we earn salvation; it is what God’s grace produces when Christ becomes our greatest treasure.

When Culture Meets Christ explores one of the most significant sermons in the book of Acts. Standing before the philosophers of Athens, Paul proclaimed the true God to people who possessed almost no biblical foundation. This message examines how Paul engaged an increasingly pagan culture without compromising the truth of the gospel, and what believers today can learn from his example as our own culture becomes more like Athens than Jerusalem. Journey through Acts 17 and discover how the unchanging message of Jesus Christ still transforms lives in every generation.

When Grace Gets Complicated explores one of the most important turning points in the Book of Acts. As the early church wrestled with whether Gentile believers needed to follow the Law of Moses to be saved, the Jerusalem Council confronted a question that still impacts Christians today: Is faith in Jesus Christ enough? Walking verse by verse through Acts 15:1–11, Pastor Curt McFarland explains why this chapter is pivotal for understanding God's unfolding plan, the relationship between law and grace, and why our confidence rests completely in the finished work of Christ.

Prepared for Purpose continues our Acts Unlocked series by exploring one of the most important turning points in the book of Acts.

In Acts 13:1–12, the Holy Spirit sends Barnabas and Paul on the first Apostolic Journey, launching a new phase in God's unfolding plan. This message explains why Antioch became the new center of ministry, how God prepared Paul over many years before publicly using him, and why Acts 13 marks the visible beginning of Paul's public ministry.

Most importantly, this sermon reminds us that God prepares His people before He sends them. Every believer has been created with purpose and invited to participate in God's work.

As America celebrates its 250th Anniversary, it is fitting to thank God for the freedoms and opportunities we have enjoyed as a nation. Yet Scripture reminds us that our ultimate hope has never rested in governments, political movements, or national prosperity.

In this message from 1 Timothy 2:1–4, Pastor Curt McFarland explores Paul's instruction to pray for those in authority, live lives that honor Christ, and remain focused on God's desire for all people to be saved. This sermon offers a balanced, Christ-centered perspective that encourages gratitude for America while reminding believers that Jesus Christ alone is the true hope for every nation.

What if God is already at work in your life—and you're missing it?

In this message from the Acts Unlocked series, Pastor Curt McFarland explores one of the most significant transition points in the book of Acts. Peter defends God's work among the Gentiles, Barnabas recognizes the grace of God in Antioch, Saul is brought into ministry, and despite persecution and opposition, God's Word continues to spread.

In Acts 10, Peter receives a vision that challenges everything he thought he understood about how God was working. This chapter is not primarily about food or even Cornelius—it is about God teaching Peter something he never expected. As the transition in Acts continues, Peter learns that God's plan is bigger than his assumptions. This message explores how God often expands our understanding before He expands our ministry and challenges us to remain teachable when God stretches our expectations.
