Last week, we were reminded that Jesus is enough. You don’t have to earn God’s love, prove yourself worthy, or clean yourself up in order to belong. This truth brings incredible freedom. But freedom in Christ doesn’t mean we can simply do whatever we want. Jesus set us free so that we can follow Him, and sometimes following Him costs us things we value. Eventually, following Jesus will collide with something we don’t want to surrender. This weekend, as we continue through Acts, we’ll wrestle with a question every believer has to answer for themselves: How far am I willing to follow Jesus when obedience becomes costly?

Last Sunday, we gathered as a church family for our All-Church Picnic and had the privilege of celebrating 68 brothers and sisters as they went public with their faith through baptism! Sixty-eight stories. Sixty-eight eternities forever changed. Sixty-eight people declaring that they belong to Jesus. I’m still smiling thinking about it. And in a beautiful way, that celebration sets us up perfectly for where we’re headed this Sunday, where we’ll grapple with the question: Is Jesus really enough? Most of us know the right answer. Of course He is! But if we’re not careful, we can unintentionally add things to our faith that God never intended. The early church grappled with this exact question in Acts 15, and the answer they arrived at was wonderfully simple and incredibly freeing.

This Sunday, in Acts 14, we’ll meet a crowd that sees God do something incredible... and totally misunderstands what they’re seeing. But before we sit in judgment, the truth is we’re not that different. We all come to Jesus with ideas about what will make us happy, secure, and whole. The danger is that instead of allowing Jesus to challenge those beliefs, we simply try to fit Him inside them. But Jesus didn’t come to play a supporting role in the story we’re already writing. He came to be Lord of our lives. This Sunday, we’ll wrestle with a simple question: Am I allowing Jesus to be Lord of every part of my life? Also, remember that this Sunday afternoon is our annual All-Church Picnic & Baptisms ! Join us at Pioneer Park beginning at 4:00pm for food, games, and time together, followed by baptisms at 7:00pm .

I hate to tell you this, but it’s really easy to go to church, sing the songs, hear the message and still sleepwalk through your faith. But you don’t want that, and neither do I. We don’t gather to go through the motions. We gather to be awakened. To be changed. To leave different than we came. Yet even the best rhythms can become routine if we’re not careful. So here’s the question for each of us to wrestle with: Am I actually being changed? This Sunday will be a much-needed wake-up call for our church, an invitation to rediscover what it means to live like God is still at work in our lives, just as He was in the book of Acts.

Have you ever wished God would just tell you exactly what to do? We want the roadmap, the right direction, the unmistakable sign that tells us what comes next. But often, God doesn't give us all the details. So how do we make wise decisions while still depending on Him? This Sunday, we'll discover how faith and reason work together as we continue our journey through Acts. Right after second service, we'll also have our quarterly Growth Path classes. Growth Path is your opportunity to take the next step in your journey of following Jesus at Twin Cities Church. Lunch and childcare are provided. Learn more and sign up.

Most of us don’t wake up trying to carry the weight of the world. We simply add one more responsibility. One more expectation. One more obligation. One more thing to prove. Before long, we’re exhausted — not because life is hard, but because we’re trying to hold together things we were never meant to hold together. What if freedom begins, not by trying harder, but by laying down a burden you were never meant to carry? I’d love to explore that question with you this Sunday as we continue our journey through Acts.

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to pray when life is going well... and how strangely difficult it can become after enough disappointment? Most of us haven’t stopped believing in God. But many of us have quietly stopped expecting Him to move. After enough unanswered prayers, deferred hopes, and painful circumstances, it’s easier to lower our expectations than risk being disappointed again. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering why prayer feels harder than it used to, or why it has become more of a last resort than a first response, then this message is for you.

We spend so much of our lives trying to be noticed. We chase influence, recognition, and the feeling that we’re making a difference. But what if the people who change the world are often the ones no one remembers? This weekend in Acts, we’ll meet a man who’s easy to overlook, yet whose quiet faithfulness helped shape the future of the Christian movement. His story challenges everything our culture says about success, significance, and what it means to live a life that truly matters.

It’s easy to think that becoming more like Jesus requires us to separate ourselves from the world around us. But what if we’ve misunderstood what it means to follow Jesus and live righteously? This Sunday, we’ll continue our journey through the book of Acts as Peter discovers that God’s law was never intended to build barriers, but bridges. We’ll wrestle with a question that every follower of Jesus needs to answer: Have I been living as an ambassador to my community, or have I been insulating myself from it? I think you’ll find that this story speaks directly into the way we live today. Speaking of living as ambassadors to our community, one of the ways we get to put that into practice is through Hope for Nevada County this Saturday from 9am-noon at Nevada Union High School. Thousands of our neighbors will come for practical help like backpacks, school supplies, shoes, haircuts, and other resources. It’s a simple opportunity to reflect the heart of Jesus through tangible acts of love. If you’d like to find out more about the event, visit hope4nevadacounty.org .
