Acts 13:13-52 Preaching in Antioch of Pisidia


37:29 minutes (8.58 MB)

Today's "substitute preacher" Brent Diggs, carries us into Paul and Barnabas' peaching in Antioch of Pisidia. It was  a long an uphill climb to a city of Jews and God fearing Gentiles. Here they preach Jesus and are initially well received until jealousy divides the city into angry mobs and joy-filled believers. Bents encourages us to guard ourselves from that same jealousy in our own lives and to look to Jesus as the "star" of the Church. 

Acts 13:4-12 Paul's 1st Missionary Journey


34:06 minutes (7.81 MB)

Joey Preaches about Paul and Barnabas 1st Missionary journey and how Paul has a tough conversation with the wicked sorcerer Bar-Jesus a la "Lord of the Rings" style...

Acts 11:19-30 The Response of Antioch


43:16 minutes (9.91 MB)

Today Joey preaches about responding to the indications of God in the seemingly "common" things of life. He uses the gentile believers of Antioch as an example of unity in a church where racism once existed. His encouragement for us is to focus on the Lord, and not the "thing" that we think is holding us back from the Lord, and in that place we will walk with authority......living out God's destiny in our everyday......   

Acts 9:20-31


49:14 minutes (11.27 MB)

This is the the continuation of Paul's Conversion and uniting with the believers. The central focus of the story is Paul's commission from Jesus and his calling to be a witness to the reality of who Jesus is. Joey talks about the the relationship between tradition and experience and how we need both in our walk with the Lord. 

There is also a great story about some mud and a lotus ... :-)

The Christmas Story: Understanding the Magi


39:10 minutes (8.97 MB)

This Christmas Joey looks at the Magi of the Christmas story as recorded in the Gospel of Matthew. They were not Kings as the songs say, they were pagan sorcerers, astronomers and astrologists. However they were seekers of truth. Joey parallels the lives of the Magi with that of the tyrannical king Herod and the Scribes and Pharisees who knew where the christ would be born but missed it. We are to be a people who seek truth and not become so busy with our own plans that we miss out on the fellowship of God and the people around us.

Acts 9:1-19 Paul's Conversion


36:38 minutes (8.39 MB)

Joey preaches about the dynamics of conversion in the account of Paul and in Ananias.  Paul, the "zealous lover of truth" gets knocked off his high horse with flashes of light when he sees Jesus for who he really is. Ananias learns faithful obedience while listening to the intimate voice of God. These two "conversions" show us the real meaning of the word: To turn with God, not just to Him. 

Acts 8:25-40 Philip and the Ethiopian - Embracing Uncertainty


34:53 minutes (7.99 MB)

Joey preaches on the story of Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch. Philip had to be able to hear from God in dangerous times, He had to trust God with a faith response and embrace uncertainty. Joey also shows how we can practically live as evangelists, pointing to God in in the everyday truth, goodness and beauty of life.
