Acts 19: The Power of Presence (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Overview In Acts 19, Paul spends nearly three years in Ephesus, and through the power and presence of the Holy Spirit, the gospel begins to shape an entire city. People come to faith, disciples are strengthened, extraordinary things happen, and the influence of the church spreads throughout the region. Acts 19 gives us a picture of what can happen when Jesus' witnesses are present and engaged, dependent on God's power, and willing to resist the forces of darkness. But the question isn't simply w
Acts 18: Keep Speaking (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In Acts 18, we see God weaving together the stories of ordinary people to advance the story of the gospel. Paul arrives in Corinth tired and discouraged, but God meets him through Priscilla and Aquila, a couple who had been displaced from Rome and were faithfully building a life and community in a new city. Later, we meet Apollos, an eloquent teacher whose understanding of the gospel was incomplete, and who was strengthened through the quiet investment of Priscilla and Aquila. This chapter remin
Acts 17: How to Be a Bold Witness & Branch Waconia Commissioning (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Paul walks into Athens and finds a city full of idols — literally an altar dedicated "To an Unknown God." Instead of getting angry and walking away, he uses it. He stands up at the Areopagus, the intellectual center of the ancient world, and shows a room full of philosophers exactly who that unknown god actually is. This message pulls four principles out of that moment for anyone who's ever felt nervous about sharing their faith: look for opportunities, use a soft startup, make it about Him, and
Acts 17: Reading The Room (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Acts 17 drops Paul into two cities and gets two completely different reactions. In Thessalonica, he reasons from the Scriptures for three straight Sabbaths, people believe, and jealousy turns a crowd into a mob that riots in the streets. In Berea, the same message lands differently — people examine the Scriptures daily to test what Paul is saying, and many believe. Same gospel, same messenger, two opposite responses. That contrast isn't just ancient history. It's still happening today, in Waconi
Acts: Vision for Church Planting (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this special message from the book of Acts, Branch Church looks ahead to a significant new chapter: the planting of a second church location in Waconia. Reflecting on five years of God’s faithfulness, Pastor Brian Suter reminds us that God has consistently done “immeasurably more” than the church could ask or imagine. Using three passages from Acts, we see a biblical picture of church planting: the church is built up and strengthened, matures in order to be sent, and strengthens other churche
