The Faith of St. Mary Magdalene - John 20:1,10-16
Today's devotional is taken from John 20:1, 10-16, and our theme is: "St. Mary Magdalene." In today's text, Mary Magdalene witnesses the resurrection of Jesus and worships Jesus as Lord. One striking thing about this account is that the resurrection occurs in a graveyard rather than beginning in Jerusalem or Galilee. Why? What does Jesus' appearance to Mary in a cemetery have to teach us about faith in the face of death? Join us as we reflect on this beautiful Gospel text.

Our devotional for today is from Acts 19:11-20 and our theme is St. Paul in Ephesus. The devil has two main tricks. The first, to lead us to believe he doesn't exist. The second, to lead us to live in fear of him. With those tricks in mind, how is the devil overcome? Join us as we see the hope and power of Jesus and His Word in our text today. Thank you for watching.
Paul and Silas Preach to the Bareans - Acts 17:10-15
zhlédnutí 7Před 14 dny
Today's devotional is taken from Acts 17:10-15 Paul and Silas in Thessalonica and Barea. The Bareans were devout students of the Scriptures who taught us two important things. First, the entire Old Testament is filled with prophecies of Jesus. Secondly, they teach us that we are to compare what we are taught from the Scriptures with the Scriptures themselves. Join us as we study and learn from ...
The Philippian Jailer Converted - Acts 16:25-34
zhlédnutí 4Před 14 dny
Paul and Silas have been thrown in prison for confessing their faith. And yet, even in the prison cell, they are able to pray and worship God. Their trust in God would become a witness to the Philippine jailer, who then asks them, "what must I do to be saved?" Join us as we reflect on this text and what it teaches us about the joy of Jesus and being witnesses to the Gospel.
The Macedonian Call - Acts 16:6-10
zhlédnutí 13Před 21 dnem
Today's devotional is taken from Acts 16:6-10 and our theme is "The Macedonian Call." The proverb says, "Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand" (Proverbs 19:21 ESV). Paul had his plans and purposes for ministry, but the Lord had a different purpose and place for Paul to work. Why is that? And what can Paul's experience teach us about the work...
The Jerusalem Council: It Seemed Good to the Holy Spirit and to Us - Acts 15
zhlédnutí 15Před 21 dnem
In our text today, we see the earliest Church council as they discuss the issue of what it means to be a "Christian." In the earliest days of the church, the question was "Does one have to be Jewish to be a follower of Jesus?" In other words, "Does a Christian have to be circumcised, keep kosher, and follow the Mosaic law?" The council at Jerusalem deliberated over this issue by listening to th...

Peter Defends Preaching the Gospel to the Gentiles-Acts 11 11 18
zhlédnutí 14Před měsícem
St. Peter gave a defense of bringing the Gospel to the Gentiles at a time when the nascent church, composed mostly of Jewish believers, thought one had to become Jewish to become a believer in Jesus. God was showing that the Church would be composed of Jewish and Gentile believers. Today's text is also a powerful example of "Divine Monergism." That means "one worker." Christianity teaches that ...
Peter's Vision Acts 10:9-23
zhlédnutí 8Před měsícem
St. Peter was a man of great faith. He was a man that the Lord used powerfully to proclaim the Gospel and lead the church. However, Peter was also still Peter. Peter needed God's word and work to continue to change his attitude and heart his entire life. In today's text, we see how God uses prayer to work on us and open us up to His Word. And we'll see how prayer can work in our lives as well. ...

Saul was a religious leader who arrested and oversaw the persecution of the Church. He was on his way to arrest more Christians when he had an encounter with Jesus. As we look at this text, we'll consider the power of prayer. docs.google.com/document/d/19P-uvnSj7VFwwd99xRRa71fDXYH55jklU61HWAdUzwE/edit?usp=sharing

I am glad when Protestants mention the Bereans. The fact that the Bereans searched the Scriptures (OT) is NOT a proof-text for their Bible-alone practice, and is instead the opposite. Yes certainly, the Bereans searched the Scriptures (a very worthy practice indeed!). But so did the Thessalonians. But look what the Bereans did NEXT. Unlike the Thessalonians who stuck to their "Bible-alone", the Bereans did the OPPOSITE to "Bible-alone". They accepted the Oral teaching of the Church through St Paul IN ADDITION to their Bible, they got baptized, and they submitted to the Church as their Final Authority. The Bereans were the Catholics, because their authority-paradigm was the Catholic paradigm: Written Tradition(Scripture), Oral Tradition, and Church as Final Authority.
