Scripture: Acts 13: 4-12

As Saul and Barnabas are called and sent out by God into the world with the good news of Jesus Christ, several things happen which, as it turns out will be repeated time and time again. One of these occurrences is the instant opposition Saul experiences as an ambassador of Christ, from a man who is ambassador of Satan on earth. Be assured, any time you are active in serving as an ambassador of our Lord, and an emissary of the enemy isn’t far away.

Scripture: Acts 13: 1-4

As we continue in our series on the book of Acts, we come to the place where the “official” ministry of the apostle Paul begins. It marks a major shift in both the book and the history of the early  church, as the gospel is going out to the ends of the earth. This morning we are focusing on Paul and Barnabas being both called and sent by God, and the necessity of the church recognizing both the calling and the sending.

Scripture: Acts 12:11-18

As we continue in the book of Acts, we find Peter, newly escaped prisoner, knocking on the door of prayer warriors who are surprised their prayer has been answered in such a wonderful way. That’s not the only surprise in the story. Perhaps the bigger surprise is why Peter takes the time to search these folks out before going into hiding to let things cool off a bit. In the midst of all the “humanness” found in this story we discover timeless principles of church body life.

Scripture: Acts 12:5–17

This morning we go back to our series in the book of Acts. Before us is that remarkable story of God’s delivering of Peter from certain death, while the church is involved in continual and earnest prayer. The question for us today is what is our spiritual reflex? When something wonderful or troubling is present, what is our automatic go-to response?

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:20-27, 42-54

He is risen! He is risen indeed! Welcome to Harvest Community Church. This morning we remember and celebrate what lies at the center of the Christian faith: the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. As the apostle Paul stated it so clearly: “If Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. And if Christ has not been raised from the dead, you are still in your sins.



If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men” (I Corinthians 15: 14,17, 19).

Scripture: Galatians 3:10–14

This morning we take a break from our series in the book of Acts to focus on one element of the atoning work of Jesus Christ on the cross. This morning, and then again at the Good Friday Service we will be looking at how Jesus frees us from the curse of God by becoming a curse for us. What does it mean to be under God’s curse and how did the work of Jesus free us from that curse and bring upon us instead the blessing of God?

Scripture: 1 Samuel 17:1–50

This morning, we welcome to bring God’s message to us Mr. Caleb Horjus. Caleb is currently studying at Calvin Theological Seminary and serving as the Director of Youth at Caledonia Christian Reformed Church. Pastor Ben and Karilynn are spending some time with daughter Sara and family in Cairo, Egypt.

Scripture: Acts 13:18-25

This morning, we continue our look at the history of the early church as it is found in the book of Acts. Today we will finish our look at a particular King Herod and his attempt to put an end to the Christian Church. He serves as an example of the folly of fighting against God, whose might cannot be contested, whose punishment cannot be avoided, and whose purposes cannot be foiled. We serve a wonderful and mighty God!
