Pt 19 in the Acts sermon series.
In this passage, we take a look at another deacon in the First Century Church - Philip. Did he have the same qualifications, the same heart-attitude as Stephen, who not only served by the power of the Holy Spirit, but witnessed about the love of Jesus Christ in the face of death. Was this burning passion of the early church leaders lost after time, or is it something we should possess today.

Acts 5:17-42 - Preach the Full Message - in Jesus' Name
Part 15 of the Acts sermon series.
Peter and the other apostles were arrested and commanded not to preach in Jesus' Name. They determined to obey God above man, and were severely beaten because of taking a stand for Jesus. How did they react? We must have the same determination and attitude that these disciples had in these last days.

Acts 4:18-31 - Standing for Jesus Christ
Part 12 in the Acts sermon series.
Peter and John have been brought before the Sadducees after healing a lame man for teaching in the name of Jesus Christ. They were strongly ordered not to teach in "this" name anymore. Their response is one we need in our hearts for today.
