Proclaim: Opposition & Opportunity

By: John Herring

Series: Proclaim

Sometimes things don’t go as planned. No matter how faithful you are to God, no matter how much attention to detail you put into your next step, the unexpected can still happen, and you can find yourself far from where you thought you’d be. This is the case in Acts 16 for the Apostle Paul and Silas. How should we react to opposition? What if that opposition comes when we're following God and sharing the Gospel? Listen in as we explore how we respond to "Opposition and Opportunity"...

Proclaim: The Gospel is for Everyone

By: John Herring
Series: Proclaim
In the early days of the church, outreach beyond the Jewish people was lacking. In fact, there was a common belief due to culture of the time that the Gospel (the "good news" of what God did for everyone) was sent for the Jewish people alone. Thankfully for many of us in the US, God made it clear that the Gospel was meant for EVERYONE! Cornelius was a Roman Centurion & is recorded in the Bible as the first convert that was not a Jew (ie. Gentile). It is thru this conversion that opened the door for many of us to have a relationship with Christ. Listen in as we explore the conversion of Cornelius & how "The Gospel is for Everyone!"

The Apostle Peter knew firsthand the power of Jesus. He had seen it repeatedly during Christ's ministry on Earth. He especially had seen the power in the many miracles Jesus had performed. Now that Jesus had ascended into heaven though, was there that same power that heals the lame? Listen in as we explore the ultimate power of "The Name of Jesus"...

By: John Herring

Days before He was wrongly accused & convicted of made up charges, Jesus was cheered by the crowd in what is known as His "Triumphant Entry" into Jerusalem. How is that that many of the same people that were excited for Jesus' arrival could days later be yelling to "Crucify Him!"? What can we learn from the "Triumphant Entry"? Listen in as we explore "God's Plans are Better!"...
