Acts chapter 2 records the birth of the church at Pentecost. What was behind this event that so powerfully propelled the church into existence? What crucial role did the Holy Spirit play in all of this? What is the significance of the gospel being spoken in so many different tongues and languages? This text will take us through an outside power, inner wonder, universal message, and a new man off the mountain.

Acts: The Gospel in the City
Luke follows up his account of the life of Christ with the story of how the earliest Christians penetrated the culture of their day with the transforming power of the gospel. Something about the Christian community was so attractively different that the Graeco- Roman culture in which they lived was eventually converted. These sermons explore the significance of the events Luke highlighted as the radiance of the gospel began to illuminate the first century Mediterranean world.

Hospitality and God’s Grace
The Gospels include many accounts of Jesus’ eating with others. In Luke chapter 14, Jesus tells a parable of a feast. What is it in his teaching that contradicts everything we know about modern hospitality? Just what kind of hospitality is Jesus calling us to do? What was so shocking regarding the invited guests in Jesus’ parable? The text and sermon unwrap the inner ring, the open home, and the pauper’s feast.
