Acts #2 - Winning In The Waiting
January 14th, 2024

Acts #3 - Come, Holy Spirit!
January 21st, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches from Acts 2:1-13. This text recounts the coming of the Holy Spirit.
This is more than just a story about what happened back then - it's about what God is still doing and wanting to do now. We need to receive the Holy Spirit (at salvation through faith in Jesus), and also be filled by the Spirit in an ongoing fashion, if we're going to live the lives Jesus has for us!
Acts #4 - The Gospel: Our Main Message
January 28th, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches through Acts 2:14-41. This text is all about the GOSPEL - the good news of who Jesus is and what he has done.
All believers are called to be witnesses for Jesus - a huge piece of this is sharing the Gospel. Thankfully, God provides everything we need - the opportunities, the boldness, the message, and the results. We just need to do it!
Acts #5 - A Picture Of The Church
February 5th, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches through Acts 2:42-47. This is an INCREDIBLE text that shows a picture of what the thriving early church was like. This is not just a word about the church of the past, but also word for the church of the present - what our priorities need to be, what we should be focused on, and what we should be doing as a result of being led by the Spirit of God.
Acts #6 - Let's Walk!
February 11th, 2024

February 18th, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches from Acts 4:1-22. This text deals with the disciples getting arrested in the wake of healing a crippled man in Jesus' name. This text is a grab bag of impactful truth - pushback from the enemy, a religious spirit, and what happens when we boldly witness in spite of it all. This is full of principles for our walk today!
Acts #8 - The Path Forward Under Pressure
February 25th, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches from Acts 4:23-37. Here, the early church was at a crossroads - if they continued on with the life Jesus called them to live, it could cost them everything; if they stopped and put it down, they would be denying their King and Saviour. Neither option was easy, but they trusted God - and he made a way forward for them.
This is a critically important message for the church today, as we will find ourselves in similar situations if we are committed to doing God's work.
Acts #9 - What Do We Do With Our Sin As Believers?
March 3rd, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches through Acts 5:1-11. This is the text about Ananias and Sapphira, who lied to God and the church and were struck dead as a result. Within what seems like an intense (some might even argue 'extreme') account is actually a beautiful, freeing invitation from God to us about how we are supposed to handle our sin day by day as believers.
Acts #10 - A Gospel Stand
March 10th, 2024
In this message, Sean Bosse teaches through Acts 5:12-42. This section of scripture details some of the persecution the early church was beginning to endure, which involved arrest, threatening, and even physical beatings. In the face of danger, the early church took a stand for the Gospel, and we must do the very same thing today.
Acts #11 - Pushing Through The Roadblocks
March 17th, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches through Acts 6:1-7. This text is about the Church - they had an issue, addressed it, and moved on better for it. You might think "what does this have to do with me?" - the reality is that as a believer, you are part of the Church too! You are a vitally important part of the same movement Jesus started all those years ago. Therefore, we need to be lovers of the Church and take seriously the call Jesus gives us to BE His Church!
Acts #12 - Like Stephen, Like Jesus
March 24th, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches through most of Acts 6 and all of Acts 7. This is one long section of scripture that describes a passionate follower of Jesus named Stephen, who is wrongfully put on trial and eventually executed for his faith. Here, we explore numerous principles that apply to all followers of Jesus today.
Acts #13 - A Deep Dive On Persecution
April 7th, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches through Acts 8:1-3. This text is about the persecution of Christians, and though it is short, it says a lot; it opens the door for us to examine the past two thousand years of church history to see that persecution against Christians is a normal - albeit evil - thing. However, there is also a message of encouragement for the church today - often times, faith in Jesus flourishes in places where persecution is the hardest.
Acts #14 - The Mission Is Messy Business
April 14th, 2024
In this message, Pastor Braden teaches through Acts 8:4-25. This text is all about our mission: to be witnesses (billboards) for Jesus. As seen in Acts 8, the mission can sometimes be messy and unpredictable - but it's a beautiful mess and is totally worth it.

Acts #16 - Jesus Saves & Sends (Part 1)
April 28th, 2024
This is a message from Acts chapter 9. Acts 9 is a famous text that contains the account of Saul's conversion. There's a reason why it's famous! It is more than just a story; it's the truth about Jesus - how he saves people and then sends them out. He's been doing this for over two thousand years, and is still doing it today!
