The Shared Burden and Shared Power of Servant Leadership

Today we will see a story that gives us a vast contrast between those who God‘s power was at work within, and those who were lacking God‘s power. Let’s make sure we are walking in all the power that God makes available to us.

God is able to turn the persecution of our enemy into an opportunity to empower His church. He really is King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Today, as we finish Acts 5, we will learn about the unstoppable power of God. Every way that the enemy opposed the work of God, we see that God’s power is greater. All the more reason for us to follow and obey Him.

Today, in Pastor Bill Buffington's message, we will see that God keeps His promises. The Holy Spirit is poured out upon the church, just as Jesus had promised. The response from outsiders is varied. It raises the question: How do we respond to the genuine work of the Holy Spirit?

Today, we will learn about the importance of unity among believers. We will learn the difference between unity and uniformity. We will come to see that unity is the power position of the church.

We will get a brief introduction to the book of Acts, and then we will look at the importance of the power of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer. We will also look at God‘s promise to those of us who await His return.
