In this episode, we conclude Acts 12 by examining the dramatic death of King Herod Agrippa. After accepting the praise of the crowd as though he were a god, Herod refuses to give glory to the Lord. In an instant, God judges the proud king, reminding us that all glory belongs to Him alone.

While Herod's earthly kingdom comes to an end, God's kingdom continues to advance. As one ruler falls, the gospel of Jesus continues to spread and more people place their faith in Jesus Christ.

Join us as we explore the danger of pride, the certainty of God's judgment, and the unstoppable power of the gospel of Jesus the Christ.

In this episode, we study Acts 12:1–19, as King Herod Agrippa launches a fierce attack against the early church. After executing the apostle James to win the approval of the religious leaders, he imprisons Peter with plans to execute him next. But while Peter waits in chains, the church prays—and God intervenes in a miraculous way.

As Peter sits chained between Roman soldiers and guarded on every side, the church gathers to pray. God responds by sending an angel to free Peter, leading him safely out of prison through locked gates and past armed guards.

In this episode, we study Acts 11:19-30 and the founding of the church in Antioch of Syria. After Stephen's death, believers scattered as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching at first only to Jews. But some from Cyprus and Cyrene began preaching to Gentiles, and a large number believed and turned to the Lord.

We walk through what happened next: the Jerusalem church sent Barnabas to Antioch, where he saw evidence of God's blessing and encouraged the believers to stay true to the Lord. Barnabas then went to Tarsus to find Saul, and the two of them taught large crowds there for a full year. It was at Antioch that believers were first called Christians.

We also cover the prophets who came down from Jerusalem, including Agabus, who predicted a great famine that came during the reign of Claudius. In response, the believers in Antioch sent relief to the brothers and sisters in Judea, each giving as much as they could, entrusting the gift to Barnabas and Saul.

Along the way we look at the geography and history of Antioch, why Barnabas was the right person to send, the origin of the term "Christian," and what this passage shows about the gospel spreading beyond Jerusalem.

When Peter returned to Jerusalem after sharing the good news of Jesus with the Roman military officer, who is a non-Jew, he faced sharp criticism from fellow believers. Why? Because he had entered the home of Gentiles (non-Jews), shared a meal with them, and witnessed God pour out the Holy Spirit upon them.

In this episode of Renewing Your Mind with the Word of God, we walk verse-by-verse through Acts 11:1–18 and explore one of the most important turning points in church history. Peter explains to his critics how God gave him a vision, led him to Cornelius' house, and demonstrated beyond doubt that salvation through Jesus Christ was not only for the Jewish people but for all who believe.

Acts 11 reminds us that the gospel breaks down every barrier that man tries to build. God's invitation to salvation through Jesus Christ extends to every tribe, nation, language, and people.

Join us as we study this powerful chapter and see how God's plan for the world unfolded through the obedience of Peter and the work of the Holy Spirit.

Listen now and be encouraged by the life-changing truth that salvation is available to all who place their faith in Jesus Christ.

In this powerful episode, we walk verse-by-verse through Acts 10:19–48, one of the most important turning points in the history of the church. Peter receives a life-changing revelation from God: the gospel of Jesus Christ is not only for the Jews—it is for everyone.

As Peter obeys the Holy Spirit and enters the home of Cornelius, a Roman military officer (a non-Jew), barriers begin to fall. What once divided Jews and Gentiles (non-Jews) is shattered by the truth that God shows no favoritism. Through Peter’s message, we witness the first recorded outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon Gentile believers like Cornelius, proving that salvation comes by grace through faith, not rituals, ethnicity, or works.

Remember, Jesus came for every nation, every background, and every person willing to believe.

In this episode we start Acts, chapter 10. Specifically, we look at verses 1-18. In Acts 10:1-18, we see God doing something unexpected. A high-ranking soldier named Cornelius—a Roman captain n in command of 100 soldiers—receives a vision from an angel at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Peter, one of Jesus' original disciples, receives a confusing vision about clean and unclean animals. And within hours, these two men—normally natural enemies—are about to meet.

Here's what happens: Cornelius is stationed in Caesarea on the Mediterranean coast. He's a devout man who prays regularly and gives generously to the poor. An angel appears to him and tells him to send men to Joppa to find Simon Peter, who is staying with another Simon—a tanner.

At the same time, Peter is on a rooftop in Joppa, hungry and praying at noon. He falls into a trance and sees the sky open. A sheet comes down filled with animals—some clean by Jewish law, some unclean. God tells Peter to kill and eat them. Peter refuses because Jewish law forbids eating unclean animals. God tells him three times: "Do not call unclean what I have made clean."

God is showing Peter that the rules Peter lived by his whole life—the boundaries between clean and unclean, Jew and Gentile—have changed because of Jesus.

In this episode of Renewing Your Mind with the Word of God, we walk verse-by-verse through Acts 9:20-31 and witness one of the most stunning transformations in Scripture: Saul, the fierce persecutor of the church, becomes its boldest preacher.

Immediately after his encounter with the risen Jesus, Saul enters the synagogues of Damascus and begins proclaiming that Jesus is the Son of God and the promised Messiah. His Pharisee training, once used to hunt down believers, now becomes a powerful tool for defending the gospel. We'll explore how God uses Saul's background, why the Jewish leaders plotted to kill him, and how he escaped Damascus lowered in a basket through the city wall.
