Acts: The Church Will Stand | Fall Sermon Series
The Church is not built by human strength, but by the power of God working through ordinary people. As we continue our journey through the book of Acts, we’ll see the gospel advance across cultures, opposition fail to stop God’s purposes, and the Church faithfully carry the message of Jesus to the ends of the earth. The book of Acts reveals that what God builds cannot be stopped, and through this series, we'll be challenged to live with the same boldness, dependence, and confidence as the early believers.
This fall, join us as we continue the second half of this journey through Acts, discovering how God is still advancing His Kingdom through His Church today.
Join us on Sundays beginning August 16 each week at 9 or 10:35 a.m.!
