Open Arms Church

In this message from Acts 4, we see how the early church faced opposition yet continued to grow with boldness and power. When Peter and John are challenged for preaching in the name of Jesus, they refuse to stay silent, declaring that salvation is found in no one else.

This sermon highlights how courage comes from being with Jesus, how pressure drives the church to prayer, and how unity releases God’s power. A powerful reminder that when the Spirit fills God’s people, the church becomes unstoppable.

From Acts 3, this message shows how a Spirit-empowered church moves from revival to action. A man lame from birth is healed in the name of Jesus, shifting the atmosphere from paralysis to praise.

The miracle becomes a message, calling people to repent and experience times of refreshing from the Lord. A powerful reminder that what we carry in Christ is greater than silver or gold. It’s time to rise up.

In this message from Acts 2, we see how the Holy Spirit transforms ordinary, burdened people into bold and empowered witnesses. The wind brings power, the fire brings purity, and the Spirit gives purpose.

This sermon reminds us that we don’t need more effort, we need more of the Spirit. A clear call to be filled, refined, and empowered to build bridges and live on mission for God.

In this message, Ps. Brian unpacks Acts 2 and shows why Pentecost is not just a historical moment, but a power we can trust today. Rooted in the resurrection and ascension of Jesus, Pentecost reveals how the exalted Christ pours out His Spirit and remains actively present in the world.

From the cross that removes guilt, to the resurrection that defeats death, to the ascension that establishes Christ’s lordship, Pentecost brings God home to His people. It marks the birth of the Church and the moment mission moves from human resolve to divine power.

In a world filled with competing voices and fragile authority, this message reveals an authority we can trust and a transforming power even the sceptic can see.

In this message, Ps. Sean Booth unpacks Acts 1–2 and the promise of the Holy Spirit poured out at Pentecost. From the sound of rushing wind to tongues of fire, we see how ordinary believers were filled, empowered, and set ablaze for God’s purposes.

This sermon explores what it means to be baptised with the Holy Spirit and fire, refined, ignited, and equipped to shine. With a clear call to Repent, Release, and Receive, we are invited to experience the transforming power of God and live passionately for His Kingdom.
