ACTS: New Start | Week 11 - Of God or Man?

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday morning, Pastor David continued our ACTS series by walking us through Acts 5:17-42. As we study the apostles and the boldness of their faith, we're reminded of the importance of prioritizing faith over worldly concerns. If our purpose comes from God and not from man, why are we concerned with what people think? The noise of the world is quick to drown out God's voice - what are we doing to hear Him? || ABOUT BEACH CHURCH || We exist to reach, raise up, and...

Easter Sunday (2024)

He is Risen, Beach Church! What an exciting opportunity we have to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus! This week, Pastor Jerry walked through the book of Acts, as the early church referred back to the whole basis of our faith. Jesus died for you and I, and then three days later, He rose again. This, “But God”, moment is the perfect reminder that even in the midst of our darkest circumstances, we serve a victorious and resurrected king! 

Cross Sunday (2024)

As we prepare for Easter, Pastor Jerry took time yesterday to remind people of the harsh realities of the cross. However, even in the midst of deep pain, there was still hope! The criminal on the cross beside Him was invited into paradise with Him, proof that God sees us and responds to us in our desperation. Let’s reflect on Jesus’ sacrifice before we celebrate his resurrection. 

ACTS: New Start | Week 9 - Is Your Faith Worth Everything?

Acts 4:32-27 tells us that believers in the early church shared everything they had with those who had need. Rachel challenges us to not only be generous with our finances but also with our time, energy, and attention. Being part of a generous kingdom requires us to be generous people. God is calling each one of us to be more generous with something. Throughout your week, pray about what God ...

ACTS - New Start | Week 8 - Are You Counting on God for the Impossible?

What bold prayers can you pray this week? || ABOUT BEACH CHU...

ACTS - New Start | Week 7 - Is He Worth It?

The message yesterday from Pastor Emmanuel was both challenging and encouraging. Jesus IS worth sacrificing everything for.
