When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 2: “The Lamb Has The Last Word”
Revelation 5 and 12:11

Revelation doesn’t show us chaos first—it shows us Christ.

This week, Pastor Kevin continues When the End Is Really the Beginning with one of the most stunning scenes in all of Scripture: the Lion who conquers as the Lamb. In Revelation 5, John weeps because no one can open the scroll—until he hears, “Behold, the Lion of Judah has conquered.” But when he turns, he sees a Lamb, slain but standing. That moment redefines power, showing that victory in God’s kingdom comes through sacrifice, not domination.

Pastor Kevin also clears up two common misunderstandings—the “antichrist” and the beasts—and shows how Revelation 12:11 gives us a framework for how the Church overcomes today: by the blood of the Lamb, by the word of our testimony, and by lives laid down in love.

You’ll discover how the Lamb’s people are already a multi-ethnic kingdom of priests who carry His presence into ordinary places. And you’ll see how “beast-logic” and “Lamb-logic” collide in our everyday lives—at home, at work, online, and in our city.

This message will strengthen your faith and remind you that our hope is not in identifying beasts, but in following the Lamb who has already won. The end is not the beasts having the last word; the Lamb has the last word. And the end is really the beginning.

When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 1: “The Lamb Wins”
Revelation 1:12–18

The book of Revelation doesn’t begin with beasts, bowls, or fear—it begins with Jesus alive and reigning.

This week, Pastor Kevin launches a brand-new series from the book of Revelation called When the End Is Really the Beginning. In a world filled with anxiety about the “end times,” this message brings clarity instead of confusion and faith instead of fear. Revelation was never written to make believers panic; it was written to make us faithful.

Through this opening vision of the risen Christ—eyes like fire, voice like rushing waters, holding the keys of death and Hades—we discover that Revelation isn’t about decoding puzzles; it’s about revealing Jesus.

You’ll learn how to approach this mysterious book with humility, Scripture-based discernment, and hope. Pastor Kevin reminds us that the Gospel shapes our view of the end: fear-based eschatology paralyzes, but faith-based eschatology mobilizes.

This message will help you lift your eyes from speculation to the Savior who says, “Fear not. I am the First and the Last.” The end isn’t doom—it’s renewal. The Lamb wins. The end is really the beginning.

MOVE – Week 10: “Finish Well”
Acts 20:17–38

What does it take to finish well?

In Acts 20:17–38, Paul shares a farewell message with the Ephesian elders, showing us that the Gospel doesn’t just need people who start strong—it needs disciples who endure to the end.

This week, Pastor Kevin closes out the MOVE series by pointing us to three anchors that help us keep moving: Jesus at the center, the Spirit’s leading even when it costs, and a love for the Church that Jesus bought with His own blood.

This message will encourage you to see how God still moves through consecrated lives—not just the celebrated ones. If Paul could finish his course with joy, we can too. The Gospel is still moving in Lower Fairfield County, and God is calling us to be a church that doesn’t just start… but finishes well.

MOVE – Week 9: “The Breakthrough in Antioch”
Acts 11:19–30 and 12:25–13:3

God’s breakthrough in Antioch shows us that the Gospel doesn’t just move through the famous names—it moves through ordinary people who say yes.

This week in Acts 11:19–30 and 12:25–13:3, Pastor Kevin walks us through a turning point in the book of Acts. In a diverse and broken city, God plants the first multi-ethnic church. And it doesn’t start with Peter, Paul, or Barnabas—it starts with unnamed believers who dared to cross cultural lines with the good news of Jesus.

The Gospel has power all by itself. It tears down walls, creates new identity, and calls people into mission. Barnabas arrives to encourage, the Spirit speaks, and Antioch becomes a launchpad for global Gospel movement.

This message will encourage you to see how God still moves today—through the consecrated, not the celebrated. If He can use ordinary men and women in Antioch, He can use you right here in Lower Fairfield County. Say yes, break barriers, and step into a missional vision that changes lives.

MOVE: Week 8 — When Everything Changes
Acts 9:1–22 | Pastor Kevin Mullins

In Acts 9, we meet Saul—a man convinced he was doing everything right, only to be stopped in his tracks by the risen Jesus. In a single moment, Saul’s life shifted from hostility to hope, from persecutor to preacher. His story reminds us that when Jesus shows up, everything changes.

In this message, Pastor Kevin unpacks the four elements of Saul’s conversion—and how they point to what happens when any heart truly encounters Jesus:

• Encounter that stops you — God breaks in right where you are.
• Dependence that changes you — learning surrender in the dark.
• Embrace that restores you — community and welcome before you’ve “proven” anything.
• Empowerment that sends you — the Spirit turning you from brokenness to purpose.

The Gospel doesn’t just give information—it moves you. And like Saul, your story can be interrupted by grace and released into a Spirit-empowered future.

Enduring Promises: God’s Vision for Your Life
2 Peter 1:3–4 | Pastor Kevin Mullins

On Small Group Sunday, Pastor Kevin shared how God’s promises aren’t just inspirational words to admire—they’re doors meant to be walked through. Drawing from 2 Peter 1:3–4 and Exodus 6, this message explores the four promises that shape both God’s vision for His people and the mission of Broad River Church: Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose, Make a Difference.

📖 In this message, you’ll learn:

• Why God has already given you everything you need for life and godliness.
• How His promises serve as pathways into a new kind of life.
• Why transformation happens best in community, not isolation.
• How Freedom Groups and Re|engage provide opportunities to step into God’s plan this fall.

This is more than a vision for our church—it’s God’s pathway for you. Don’t just admire His promises. Step into them.

We Need Each Other
John 13–17 | Pastor Kevin Mullins

This week, Pastor Kevin shares a pastoral message that goes beyond inspiration and speaks as both a warning and an encouragement: we were not made to live life alone.

As our church prepares for Small Group Sunday, this message unpacks why biblical community is not optional—it’s essential. Drawing from Jesus’ final conversation with His disciples (John 13–17), we discover five truths that remind us of our deep need for one another.

📖 In this message, you’ll learn:

• Why the first problem in the Bible wasn’t sin—it was solitude.
• How relationships provide care, encouragement, and strength in times of need.
• Why partnering together allows us to make a greater difference than we ever could alone.
• The power of accountability and protection when we let others into our lives.
• How prayer covering from others sustains us in moments of weakness.

In a culture of isolation, this sermon is a call back to God’s design: that we would live in authentic community, caring for one another, protecting one another, and lifting one another up in prayer.

As Pastor Kevin reminds us: If you’re the only one who knows your secrets, you’re in trouble. You don’t have to tell everybody, but you need to tell somebody.
