Riots or revivals—why does Paul keep finding both? We open Acts 14 and walk city to city with Paul and Barnabas as bold preaching collides with mixed crowds, stunning miracles, and sudden opposition. In Iconium, the message of grace lands with power, dividing the town and setting the stage for a flight to safety. In Lystra, a crippled man walks, the crowd misreads the miracle, and chaos swells into misplaced worship, calling the mi...

A quiet room in Antioch erupts into purpose when prayer and fasting meet a clear call from the Holy Spirit. We follow Barnabas and Saul as a local church lays hands on them and launches a story that stretches across islands, synagogues, and city streets—where the message of Jesus collides with power, pride, and hunger for truth. What begins as worship becomes movement, and what meets resistance does not stall.
We walk thro...
A sword, a cell, and a shout that sounds like worship—Acts 12 moves from tragedy to triumph with a pace that steals your breath. We walk through James’s martyrdom, Peter’s late-night rescue, Rhoda’s unforgettable joy, and Herod’s public collapse, drawing out what these scenes say about suffering, prayer, pride, and God’s steady rule. The contrast is stark and instructive: one apostle dies with honor, another wakes to an angel nudgi...
What if the greatest barrier to breakthrough isn’t the world out there but the walls we keep inside the church? Acts 11 throws those walls into the light as Peter returns to Jerusalem with a story that redefines the possible: Gentiles received the Holy Spirit just like the first believers. No insider shortcuts, no second-class status—just the same promise, the same power, and the same unmistakable fruit that silences objections and...

A man sets out to crush a movement and meets the very King he is fighting. Saul’s road to Damascus begins with fury and ends with a blinding encounter that rewrites his life, his mission, and the church’s future. We walk through the shock of that moment, the quiet courage of Ananias who calls a former enemy “brother,” and the first sparks of a ministry that will carry the gospel across empires.
From there, the story widens...
When pressure hits, does faith shrink or spread? Acts 8 shows how persecution in Jerusalem became the spark for a wider move of God, sending ordinary believers into Judea and Samaria with courage, clarity, and power. We walk through Stephen’s aftermath, Saul’s crackdown, and the surprising ways the gospel took root where no one expected it.
We zero in on Philip, a deacon turned evangelist, whose preaching in Samaria is mar...
What would you say if you knew your next words might be your last? We walk through Acts 7 with Stephen, a servant chosen for tables who becomes a witness before tribunals. Starting with Abraham and moving through Joseph, Moses, the tabernacle, and the temple, we trace how God keeps His promises even when His people resist Him. The story builds to a sharp turn—Stephen’s Spirit-filled rebuke of stubborn hearts—and then lifts our eyes...
What if the problem holding your community back isn’t a lack of passion, but a lack of structure? We open Acts 6 and trace how the early church moved from friction to flourishing by pairing spiritual focus with practical wisdom. A complaint from Greek-speaking believers about overlooked widows forced a brave response: protect prayer and teaching, and raise trusted leaders to serve people well. The result wasn’t just smoother logist...
Holiness inside and courage outside—Acts 5 brings both into sharp focus. We open with a generous community meeting urgent needs, then confront the sobering story of Ananias and Sapphira. Their deception isn’t about dollars; it’s about truth. The result is holy fear that resets the church’s understanding of integrity, reminding us that the Spirit’s power cannot be separated from the Spirit’s purity.
From there, the scene sp...
A healing no one can deny. A courtroom that can’t control the story. A prayer that shakes the room. We dive into Acts 4 and walk through the clash between ordinary believers and the highest religious council, where Peter and John—dismissed as untrained—answer with Spirit-given clarity and courage. Their message centers on Jesus Christ of Nazareth, crucified and raised, the cornerstone the builders rejected. The authorities demand s...
A man sits at the edge of worship, asking for coins and expecting little. We walk with Peter and John to the Beautiful Gate, where a simple pause, a steady gaze, and the name of Jesus transform a lifetime of waiting into a first step, then a leap. What starts as a quiet act of compassion turns into a public invitation, as Peter explains the miracle and points an amazed crowd back to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob who raised J...
What if the moment that changed the church’s future could reshape your next step today? We dive into Acts 2 and watch Pentecost ignite a movement: a roaring wind, tongues like fire, and the gospel proclaimed in the languages of a crowded Jerusalem. Confusion gives way to clarity as Peter stands up—not the man who denied Jesus, but a witness transformed by the Spirit—anchoring the moment in Joel’s prophecy and David’s promise and po...
A movement doesn’t start with perfect people. It starts with a promise. We open Acts with Luke’s careful hand guiding us from resurrection reality to the launchpad of the church, where an upper room full of ordinary disciples waits, prays, and prepares for power. Before the crowds and miracles come, there’s a quiet ten-day hinge that shapes everything: Jesus ascends, angels reassure, and a community chooses faithfulness over frenzy...
A bleak harvest, a broken court, and a House divided—Micah 7 opens with a world out of joint and ends with a God who refuses to walk away. We read the chapter aloud, trace its sharp turns from judgment to joy, and sit with the honest tension: sometimes we suffer what we did not earn, and sometimes we suffer what we did. Either way, the promise holds—though we fall, we will rise, and the Lord will be our light.
I share why ...
Ever tried to buy a gift for someone who has everything? That’s the framing question we use to walk through Micah 6 and discover what God actually wants from us. Spoiler: it’s not rivers of oil or grand gestures. It’s a life shaped by three simple, demanding practices—act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God.
We start by setting the scene: Israel is squeezed by Assyria, leaders are corrupt, and everyday people have...
Siege at the gates, fear in the air, and a prophet pointing to a quiet town with a world-changing promise. We walk through Micah 5 and discover how a ruler from Bethlehem becomes the source of peace that outlasts empires and outlives our anxieties. The chapter anchors a bold claim: real peace doesn’t come from bigger walls or sharper swords; it comes from a shepherd-king who stands in the strength of the Lord and gathers scattered ...
The story felt over. Judgment had been pronounced, the pressure was mounting, and the future looked bleak. Then Micah 4 opens like a window, flooding the room with light. We walk through this surprising turn—from dire warnings to a sweeping promise—where God lifts Zion, draws the nations, and turns weapons into tools for harvest. It’s a vision of justice that mediates rather than retaliates, and of peace that grows roots in ordinar...
A hard truth can save a life, and Micah 3 brings one of the hardest truths in Scripture straight to the doorstep of leadership. We walk through the prophet’s blistering words to rulers, priests, and prophets who traded justice for bribes and truth for comfort, and we ask what that means for anyone who serves today. With a candid personal story and practical guardrails, we explore how motives shape ministries, teams, and everyday ac...
