Acts 13:1-12 - God Has A Mission For His Church (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pastor Tyler Anderson reflects on uncertainty in his mother’s difficult season and the church’s own new season after challenges like a fire and changing meeting spaces, noting God often gives only the next step. In Acts 13:1-12, the church at Antioch becomes a sending church, commissioning Barnabas and Saul without knowing what lies ahead. Tyler highlights four lessons: God uses all kinds of people; before doing something for God, believers should worship, pray, and fast to seek His direction; b
Acts 12 - When God Is Still In Control (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pastor Tyler Anderson preaches from Acts 12, where James is executed, Peter is arrested, and Herod appears to be winning, butthe chapter is ultimately about God’s sovereignty. He highlights four truths: God is still in control when we don’t understand; God is still at work when all we can do is pray; God is bigger than every obstacle; and God is still building His kingdom. Pastor Tyler connects the passage to his church’s post-fire transition and personal losses, urging confidence in God rather

He connects these priorities to upcoming building plans, calling the building a tool, not the church.
Acts 11:1-18 - Don't Miss What God is Doing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pastor Tyler Anderson preaches from Acts 11, warning that believers can become so focused on tasks, preferences, and traditions that they miss God’s work right in front of them. He compares this to a parent rushing to get out the door and missing a child’s meaningful act. In Jerusalem, the first response to Peter’s report that Gentiles received the gospel and the Holy Spirit was criticism—“Why did you eat with Gentiles?”—showing they were consumed with methods instead of God’s miracle. Peter hum
Acts 10:24-48 - The Heart of God (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pastor Tyler Anderson reflects on World Cup crowds as a glimpse of heaven’s diversity and preaches from Acts 10:24–48 about God’s heart for every nation through Peter and Cornelius. He highlights four truths: God is already preparing hearts, the gospel is bigger than assumptions, believers shouldn’t try to control what only God can do, and the church should join what God is doing by welcoming and baptizing new believers. He challenges the church to cross barriers, identify “your Cornelius,” and
