Prayer and Power in the Church part 1

9/26/2025
This was a time of great growth in the early Christian church, and two of the leaders of that early church, Peter and John, are just now being released from jail after being arrested for preaching the gospel. The reaction they see when they return to their church is another example of the Holy Spirit’s presence.

Boldness From Above part 2

9/25/2025
I think we can all agree that we’d like to be a little bolder in our approach to sharing the gospel. It’s a tough thing to do sometimes, isn’t it? We see a great need among the unsaved around us, yet we don’t want to be “pushy” or “offensive”. The Holy Spirit can help!

Boldness From Above part 1

9/24/2025
On today’s program we will continue an exciting journey through the book of Acts, as we open chapter four. Here we find some new believers in Christ, who had prospered financially, selling some of their possessions, and bringing the money to the disciples to distribute to those in need.

A Merciful Confrontation part 2

9/23/2025
What we’ll see today is more evidence of the Holy Spirit’s presence, and more evidence of man’s unwillingness to acknowledge His presence. Peter called the people to account for this back then, and his words will remind us today, that acknowledgment begets faith, and faith begets worship and that’s why we’re here... to glorify and worship the Lord Jesus Christ.

A Merciful Confrontation part 1

9/22/2025
Have you ever experienced something and later realized you’d been set up? That’s exactly what’s about to happen to Peter and John. They’re on their way to the temple to pray and they come across a lame man begging for money. What happens at the Beautiful Gate served to give the people a vivid example of the presence and the power of The Holy Spirit.

Evidence of a Healthy Church part 2

9/19/2025
Many Christians try to live a Christian life without ever really knowing what it is. Is that you today? Well, help is on the way as we bring you another message from pastor Lloyd’s series in Acts. Today’s message is titled “Evidence of a Healthy Church”. Join us in Acts chapter two as we learn what it means to really be a healthy church.

Evidence of a Healthy Church part 1

9/18/2025
Today we begin a message dealing with the last six verses of the second chapter of Acts. Here’s the scenario: Peter has just given a dynamite sermon about the power and the glory of Jesus Christ, and now those who heard the sermon are asking, “What do you want us to do now?” It’s a common question, and there’s a very clear answer found in these verses in Acts chapter two.

The First Gospel Message part 2

9/17/2025
Today we’ll look at chapter two, verses twenty two through forty one. Here, Luke records the amazing and Spirit-inspired words of the Apostle Peter’s first sermon. Peter is exhorting his audience to repent and be saved. And those who have heard his words are being swept up in the Holy Spirit.

The First Gospel Message part 1

9/16/2025
When the Holy Spirit came upon the hundred and twenty disciples, there were many who were amazed. But there were some who thought these spirit-filled people had had a little too much wine to drink! After all, they were being heard by the crowd in several different languages at the same time! The Apostle Peter came to the rescue with a sermon that set the record straight.

Outpouring of the Holy Spirit part 2

9/15/2025
Today we continue our study through the book of Acts, with a stop in Acts chapter two. The day of Pentecost has arrived, and with it, the Holy Spirit. Without question this is one of the most significant events in the Bible, as the third member of the Holy Trinity descended upon the early Christian Church. As we will see in today’s message, the work of the Holy Spirit began immediately, and the results were quite startling to those who witnessed them.

Waiting For God's Promise Part 2

9/11/2025
If you weren’t with us we are continuing our study through the book of Acts and we’re near the end of chapter one. The Acts of the Apostles is the full name usually given to this book, but perhaps a more accurate title would be “The Acts of the Holy Spirit through the Disciples”. Turn to Acts chapter one in your Bible and join us for today’s edition of Bridging the Gap.

He Is Risen! part 2

9/5/2025
Anyone who watches court cases on TV can tell you that the most important factor in acquittal or conviction is the quality of the evidence. There is plenty of evidence to support the resurrection of Jesus, but as we wrap up our series today, pastor Lloyd will also consider another important question - why did Jesus die?

He Is Risen! part 1

9/4/2025
Today we’ll bring you part one of pastor Lloyd’s final message in his series through Mark. Jesus indeed rose from the grave, and the proof was there for anyone to see - anyone that is who sought the truth. As Lloyd will mention, the proof that Jesus Christ rose from the grave is overwhelming, and anyone who disagrees simply doesn’t know what they’re talking about!

Jesus Christ Crucified part 2

9/3/2025
If you were headed for a cliff in your car, and had plenty of time to hit the brakes and stop safely, you’d do it wouldn’t you? Self preservation is a strong instinct for humans and all other creatures. Why then did Jesus Christ allow himself to be crucified in a horribly painful way, when He could easily have stopped it? Because He loves us so much!

Jesus Christ Crucified part 1

9/2/2025
Today, as our study through Mark nears it’s completion, we’ll look at the crucifixion of Jesus. The facts are familiar to all of us. The pain, torture, and humiliation Jesus suffered at the hands of his murderers should remind us all that He allowed it to happen for one reason: He loves us!

What Shall I Do With Jesus? part 2

9/1/2025
When Jesus was arrested and appeared before Pilate, who was really on trial? The answer may surprise you. Our study in Mark’s gospel continues today in chapter fifteen. We’re all familiar with the events surrounding the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Today we’ll consider the hearing before Pilate from a slightly different perspective. Who actually was on trial here?

What Shall I Do With Jesus? part 1

8/29/2025
We’ll start in Mark fifteen today, as Jesus is appearing before Pilate after His arrest. The decision facing Pilate is quite similar to the decision every person must make. We know, as Pilate did, that Jesus Christ is who He says He is. Yet, will we choose the easy way out and reject Him?

Betrayed, Arrested and Tried part 2

8/28/2025
Today pastor Lloyd resumes his verse by verse series through the gospel of Mark. We’ve reached a crucial section here in chapter fourteen, verses forty three through seventy two. Jesus has been arrested and now stands before the high priest. What irony we see here - Jesus, the only guiltless person in the room, stands accused of blasphemy.

Betrayed, Arrested and Tried part 1

8/27/2025
We’ve spent a considerable amount of time studying the gospel of Mark on the program, and today we reach chapter fourteen, verses forty three through seventy two. In this familiar scene, Jesus is arrested in the Garden of Gethsemene.

Prayer in the Garden part 2

8/26/2025
Mark is the shortest of the four gospel accounts of Jesus Christ’s earthly life, but it contains some very moving accounts of His ministry. One of those accounts is in chapter fourteen, verses thirty two through forty two, where we see the Lord in the Garden of Gethsemene.
