Kaleb preaches on Acts chapter 8 and explains when someone is grieving there is something/someone missing. He continued to show that when the Apostles were grieving something that was missing, they went on to give to others what they were missing by preaching the word.
Kaleb preaches on Acts chapter 7 and explains how Stephen’s death is even more of a blessing to the church than his life, but it was because of the way he lived his life that his death was so impactful. He then encourages us to live like Stephen and stand up for the widows or marginalized, the truth, and the sinner, so that when we die, we can bless those around us.
Kaleb preaches on Acts chapter 6 and tells of how when the apostles were presented with a problem, they gave it away with permission to those affected by the problem. This is because the people closest to the problem know how to solve it the best.
Kaleb describe Acts 5 is about making the right choices to be a batter person and obeying God rather than human beings, so that your heart is filled with heaven.
Kaleb preaches on Acts chapter 4 and tells of how Peter and John were questioned by all the authorities on who gave them permission to heal a beggar. He explains that Peter and John did not have a script to follow, but were filled with the Holy Spirit to be able to answer them. Kaleb then encourages us to go off SCRIPT in our lives and go “on Spirit” and gives us an acronym to help with this.
Kaleb preaches on Acts chapter 3 and reminds us of his sermon on this passage from the beginning of the year. He points out that when Peter and John come across a beggar at a gate to the temple, they don't just pass him by like so many before them, they pause and give him what he truly needs.
Here is the verse Kaleb has given for us to repeat every day this week:
"But Peter said, “I do not have silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, walk!” -Acts 3:6
Kaleb preaches on Acts chapter 2 and stresses the importance of timing. He explains why Pentecost was the right time for the disciples to receive the Holy Spirit and how it was only the beginning. He then tells of how all the Jews gathered for Pentecost were pierced in the heart by the words of the disciples because they heard them in their native language and encourages us to be “translators” who speak to the hearts of the people we encounter.
Kaleb begins his sermon series on Acts by preaching on Acts chapter 1. He tells us that after Jesus was resurrected, he returned to be with his disciples for forty days until he ascended. Before he ascended, he promised them the power of the Holy Spirit, but before they receive it, he commanded them to wait. Kaleb stresses the importance of this period of waiting, that it gives God the authority and gives us a chance to unite as one mind, devoted to prayer.
Kaleb preaches on Matthew 9:37 - 10:23 and gives us the prequel to the book of Acts. He points out that the disciples were willing to take smaller steps towards discipleship before the great commission and all the great works performed in the book of Acts. He then invites us to pray the following prayer: “Father in Heaven, I am willing.”
Kaleb preaches this Easter on Luke chapter 24 and shows how Jesus’ death and resurrection is the most important and powerful ignition ever and it is still just as powerful today as it was when it happened.
Kaleb Preaches on Matthew 28:16-20 Go and Make - take your invitation to others. He explains that this is a way to follow and invite people to trust and follow Jesus.
Mark Staneart preaches on Jesus' invitation for us to come and die. He explains that this is a call for us to put to death anything in our lives that we might prioritize over Jesus, and focus solely on him.
Kaleb preaches on John 15: 1-11 and continues with his sermon series “The Invitation” by giving us Jesus’ invitation to come and abide. He uses the metaphor of when something is squeezed, what comes out is what is inside of that thing. If we want to have the love of Jesus come out of us when we are squeezed by life, we need to abide in Him.
Kaleb preaches on John chapter 13 and continues with the sermon series “The Invitation” by reminding us of Jesus’ invitation to come and love. He expands on last weeks invitation to come and learn by saying that anyone has the ability to learn from and follow Jesus’ commandments, but if they do not love in the way Jesus does (showing love even when it’s not necessary), it is meaningless.
Kaleb preaches on Matthew 11:25-30 and tells us of Jesus’ invitation to come and learn. He reminds us that learning takes practice and isn’t a passive thing, but Jesus tells us that if we put his teachings into practice, we will find rest for our souls.
Kaleb preaches on John 1:38-49 and tells us of Jesus’ invitation to come and see. Jesus encourages our curiosity with this invitation and shows that he has a desire for us to follow Him.
Trevor Owen preaches on the parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke chapter 10. He reminds us that even though we live in a time of fear and devision that can even be justified and make sense, Jesus calls us to love others in the same way the Samaritan loved the beaten man on the road.
Kaleb preaches on Luke 19:1-10 and shows us through the story of Zaccheus that the good news of Jesus is not just for people who have visible external issues, it is for all people.
Pastor DJ Vincent from Church at the Park brings a message about the core principles that Church at the Park derives their mission from. He asks us to consider our way of seeing, doing, and being so that we might be free from fear to love and serve our community.
Here is the YouTube video that DJ showed during the sermon as it was unable to be recorded:
