In week two of In the Arena, Pastor Joby dives into Acts 19 to show us how the same gospel power that dismantled Ephesus’s demonic stronghold still fights for us today.
Paul didn’t bring gimmicks or self-help hacks—he wielded the Spirit to rend magic books worth a fortune, ignite genuine repentance, and spark revival through worship, confession, fellowship, and generosity. But decades later, Ephesus had abandoned its first love. Jesus’s tender rebuke—“Do you love me?”—reminds us that our authority flows not from programs or performance, but from a heart rooted in Christ.
If you’re weary of fighting in your own strength, longing to rekindle passion for Jesus, or ready to wield gospel-fueled weapons against every chain, this sermon will equip you to step into the arena and watch Him move.
