We were honored to have Pastor Victor Hashweh from our partner church in Amman, Jordan, with us, delivering a message from Acts 2.
Visitation
In Luke 1:26-56, Mary is visited by an angel and invited into God’s plans and favor. She is “highly favored” and responds to God’s invitation with ideal yielding of any disciple to their master: “may your word to me be fulfilled.” Mary and Elizabeth meet and their children leap in anticipation. Mary rejoices with the famous Magnificat, praising God for remembering and visiting His people. SERMON OUTLINE “You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to…

7 on Multiplication
A church that is becoming a reflection of Revelation 7:9-10 aims to establish strong and continuous leadership growth and multiplication. We will talk about 7 categories of leadership growth (using the Ministry Leadership Growth Model) and prioritize annual ministry residents and summer interns. The Apostle Paul wrote, “The things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others” (2 Timothy 2:2). Sermon Outline “There before me…
7 on Mission
A church that is becoming a reflection of Revelation 7:9-10 aims to grow externally through missional engagement. We are looking at missional church planting (e.g., missional communities, people moving into targeted communities), missional multisite, and increased opportunities for field-based community work (e.g., Bread of healing, Neighborhood Learning Center). Jesus summarized the church’s mission in Acts 1:8, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea…
7 on Discipleship
A church that is becoming a reflection of Revelation 7:9-10 aims to make new disciples and grow current disciples deeper. We want to see that through increased conversions, small group participation, and triad development. “Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching…
Praying With the Master
When Jesus faced arrest and crucifixion, He draws away with His disciples to pour out His anguish before the Father. In that place of anguished prayer in Luke 22:39-46, Jesus yields to the Father’s will. What does it look like for us to pray with the Master in the midst of anguish? Sermon Outline “And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.” (Luke 22:44) The Noticeable Pattern of…
