New Leadership

By Pastor Brad Murphy
Acts 1:12-26
April 19, 2015

New things smell new.  New things look new.  New things also need some-getting-used-to, because new things mean change.

God has new things planned for you.  Things that you may have heard about, but haven’t experienced.  Things that may terrify or excite you.

Behold, I am doing a new thing;
    now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
    and rivers in the desert.
– Isaiah 43:19

At the conclusion of Jesus’ earthly ministry He commissioned a band of followers to carry the message of His Kingdom to the farthest reaches of the earth.  He promised them power to witness.  He promised them victory.  He promised them Himself.

In the sermon series, NEW, we will study all the wonderful, powerful, and difficult things the disciple Peter, and other disciples, experienced in the days, weeks, and years after Jesus resurrection.

What is Truth | Abide: Live Like Jesus 25

by

What kind of tree are you?  Are you and orange tree? Apple tree? Banana tree?

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
– John 15:4 (ESV)

You know a tree by it’s fruit.

Abide in me!  This summarizes the final teachings of Jesus in his last few hours on earth.

As we continue to study the book of John on Sunday mornings, we have transitioned into Jesus teaching on his enduring presence.  As we live in his Spirit we will bear his fruit.

During this service the congregation was seated at tables and encouraged to discuss the scriptures together.   We call this Table Talk.  You will notice that at times, Pastor Brad will give them instructions for their discussion.  Feel free to pause the recording and dig into the passages yourself.  The questions for the Table Talk times are listed below.
