FATHER'S DAY SERMON, 6/21/26

POWERFUL WORDS OF A FATHER
Mark 1:11, 9:7

Solomon writes, "The tongue has the power of life and death..." (Proverbs 18:21). Our words are powerful! They can build up or they can destroy (Ephesians 4:29). And this is especially true of the words that fathers and mothers use in speaking to their children.

Specifically addressing fathers, the Apostle Paul writes, "Fathers, do not exasperate [to frustrate or provoke to anger] your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord" (Ephesians 6:4). As a father, I know how easy it is to get upset with our children and say things that are hurtful and harmful. That's why we must choose our words carefully when speaking to our children whom God has entrusted in our care.

Have you ever considered the words that the Heavenly Father spoke to and about His Son? There are only two occurrences in Scripture where we have the recorded words of God the Father speaking in regards to His Son Jesus. They are when Jesus was baptized at the beginning of his ministry (Mark 1:11) and when He was transfigured toward the end of His ministry (Mark 9:7). They were just a few words, twenty-three words in all, but they speak volumes about the relationship that the Father had with His Son.

This Sunday for Father's Day, I want to glean from these few words three phrases that we Dads should be liberally saying to our children young and old, and even to our grandchildren.

Come join us this Sunday as we recognize and honor Dads.

SUMMER SERMON SERIES, 6/14/26

CONVERSIONS IN ACTS: THREE THOUSAND AT PENTECOST
Acts 2

The church of Jesus Christ began almost 2,000 years ago on the Day of Pentecost, 50-days after the Passover and essentially after Jesus' resurrection. The first CONVERSIONS IN ACTS resulted in THREE THOUSAND people being baptized into Christ out of obedience to the gospel message that Peter and the other apostles presented that day. What an amazing sight that must of have been watching the apostles baptizing thousands in one day.

Little did the multitude of people who had gathered on Pentecost to celebrate the giving of the Law to Moses, as the Jews had for centuries, realize that their day would end with them giving their lives to Jesus as the Son of God. Undoubtedly, many who had been baptized on that day had witnessed what they believed was a blasphemer being crucified on the cross just weeks before. I'm sure many were in the crowd yelling, "Crucify Him! Crucify Him!" when Pilate the Roman governor asked the people, "What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ" (Matthew 27:22).

Fifty-days later as they hear the apostles tell them that they "crucified the Son of God", they were cut to the heart and asked, "Brothers, what shall we do?" What Peter tells them that they MUST DO to be forgiven of their sins in order to be saved, is what people still must do 2,000 years later to have their sins forgiven to receive eternal life.

Come join us as we study the birth of the church of Jesus Christ where THREE THOUSANT ON PENTECOST were saved.

SUMMER SERMON SERIES, 6/7/26

CONVERSIONS IN ACTS: SENDING OF THE APOSTLES
Acts 1:1-10

A few days after receiving The Great Commission from Jesus Christ to go into all the world preaching the gospel (Matthew 28:19-20 and Mark 16:15-16), the apostles did just that starting in Jerusalem on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2), fifty days after the Passover and the resurrection of Jesus. On that day 3,000 plus people accepted the gospel message and were baptized into Christ, giving birth to the church of Jesus Christ.

Luke recorded how the apostles and other disciples carried out The Great Commission of Christ in his history book known as The Acts of the Apostles. In the Book of Acts, we see how the church started in Jerusalem on the Day of Pentecost and continued to spread throughout Judea and the known world multiplying exponentially with more and more people submitting their lives to Christ in baptism being “added to their number [the church] daily those who were being saved” (Acts 2:47).

This summer we will be studying from the Book of Acts the CONVERSIONS of those who heard and accepted the gospel of Christ as proclaimed by the apostles of Jesus and were baptized into Him. We will see the uniqueness of each conversion story in Acts as well as the similarities. Luke records how the apostles carried out The Great Commission of their Lord despite strong opposition from both the Jewish religious leaders and the governments of Israel and Rome.

Come join us this Sunday as we begin this study with the SENDING OF THE APOSTLES by Jesus just before His ascension to the Father.
