Sermons on Acts
Commissioning service for Paul and Alison
Paul and Alison will shortly be travelling to Uganda for missionary work. We met on 5th September with our friends from Holy Trinity to commission them. The recording includes an interview with them, followed by a Bible reading from Acts 1, and the talk.
Our part…
On 7th June, Andrew used the first few chapters of Acts leading up to chapter 6 to talk about how everyone has a part to play in the life of the church.
Pentecost
On Sunday 31st May we considered the events of the first Pentecost and how they apply to us today.
Praise, preparation, prayer
On 24th May Chris Justice spoke about how the disciples spent their time as they waited between Ascension and Pentecost. The talk starts with a reading from Acts 1 v1-14.
Beyond the theory
Andrew spoke about how important it is for us to go beyond the theory and really apply what we study in the Bible in our lives.
A chosen people
Andrew continued our series in Acts, speaking from Acts 1 and 2 to show how the events of 2,000 years ago mean we are being built into a Holy temple, a chosen people.
Preparation
Andrew spoke from Acts chapter 1 about the time between the Resurrection and the coming of the Holy Spirit.
Self control
Tim Cox considers Paul’s trial before Felix (Acts 24) and notes, for us, the importance of self-control.
Family
On 20th October Andrew spoke from Acts chapter 2 about how the Holy Spirit helps us live together as the family of God.
How does the Holy Spirit help us worship?
On 13th October Andrew continued our series on living in the presence and the power of the Holy Spirit. During the sermon he refers to this painting, “Starry Night” by Vincent van Gogh.
