2819 Church

n this piercing conclusion to our powerful series, ACTS I & II, Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell brought a bold word from Acts 2:42-47. The Church was never about size but about faithfulness. A mixed multitude of disciples, rooted in the Word, fighting for true community (koinonia) with glad and generous hearts. Meeting in temples and homes, they cared enough about the lost that the Lord added to their number daily.

This is THE TRUE CHURCH that Christ died to leave with us. As time runs out: Devote yourself. The King is coming.

In continuation of our powerful series, ACTS I & II, Lonnell Williams helps us understand Acts 2:37–41. It reveals what happens when the Word of God penetrates our hearts. Peter preached Christ, and the people were cut to the core. Truth confronted them, exposed them, and demanded a response: “What shall we do?”

In week 5 of ACTS I & II, Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell teaches from Acts 2:22–36, continuing Peter’s bold defense of Christ before the very men of Israel who crucified Him.

Jesus was affirmed by the Father through mighty works, signs, and wonders. Lawless men crucified Him under the sovereignty of God. The free will of man could never stop the perfect will of God.

Through the resurrection, Christ robbed the grave and defeated death, leaving us with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

In week 4 of ACTS I & II, Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell teaches from Acts 2:14–21, revealing the power of the Holy Spirit poured out on the early Church.
At Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descended upon the 120 faithful disciples with the sound of a mighty rushing wind and tongues of fire. As nations gathered in wonder, confusion, and mockery, Peter stood before thousands in Jerusalem, defended the Church, and preached the first sermon of the Church age, anchored in Scripture.
The Holy Spirit was poured out to empower believers to proclaim Christ and make disciples in these last days.

In week 3 of of our powerful series, ACTS I & II, Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell walks us through Acts 2:1–13, revealing the power of the Holy Spirit at work in the early church.In the final Passover and Pentecost, the disciples had every reason to grow weary, frustrated, and full of doubt, yet they remained devoted to prayer and the Scriptures, holding fast to what Jesus said.Then suddenly, a sound like a mighty rushing wind filled the room, and the Holy Spirit was poured out. They were baptized and filled for the works of making disciples.Some heard the wonders of God and were drawn to transformation, while others responded with mockery.
