What does it mean to live empowered by the Holy Spirit? In this Pentecost Sunday message, we explore Acts 2 and the promise Jesus gave His followers: “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you.” This sermon looks at the role of the Holy Spirit throughout Scripture, the purpose of Spirit baptism, and why God still empowers believers today. Using the illustration of a saw without a battery, this message reminds us that while faith in Christ brings salvation, God also desires to empower us to live boldly and be effective witnesses for Him. 📖 Primary Scripture: Acts 2:1–4 🔹 In this message: • The Holy Spirit in the Old Testament • The promise of Pentecost • Regeneration and sanctification • Empowerment for witness • Why the gifts of the Spirit still matter • “We are leaky vessels” • Living Spirit-filled daily ⏱ Chapters: 00:00 — Open 00:30 — Empowered to Witness 02:00 — Acts 2 and Pentecost 05:00 — The Holy Spirit in the Old Testament 10:00 — The Promise of the Spirit 14:00 — Regeneration and Sanctification 17:00 — Power to Be Witnesses 21:00 — Why the Gifts Still Matter 25:00 — We Are Leaky Vessels 28:00 — Final Challenge and Invitation 🙏 If you’d like prayer, want to take a next step, or would like to connect with New Faith Church: 👉 https://www.newfaithcw.org/next 📅 See upcoming events and ways to get involved: 👉 https://www.newfaithcw.org/life 🌐 Learn more about New Faith Church: 👉 https://www.newfaithcw.org #PentecostSunday #HolySpirit #Acts2 #SpiritFilled #Pentecost #ChristianFaith #BibleTeaching #Empowered #NewFaithChurch

Missionary Dave Johnson joined us this week with a powerful reminder that the mission of the Gospel is still unfinished. Through stories from across Asia, practical teaching from 2 Timothy 2, and a heartfelt challenge to the Church, Dave reminded us that God is still calling people to pray, give, go, and help raise up leaders who will reach the nations. 📖 Primary Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:1–2 In this message, you’ll hear: • Why leadership multiplication matters in missions • Stories of God moving in Thailand, Myanmar, Vietnam, Japan, and beyond • The challenge of reaching unreached people groups • Why “the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few” still matters today • How ordinary believers can help fulfill the Great Commission 🙏 If this message encouraged you, take a moment to like, subscribe, and share it with someone else.

Hannah’s story reminds us that some pain runs deeper than human solutions — but God sees our pain, hears our prayers, and calls us to trust Him with what matters most. In this Mother’s Day message from our “The 5th Gospel” series, we look at Hannah's life in 1 Samuel 1 and discover what true surrender, worship, and purpose really look like. This message is not only about motherhood — it’s about every believer learning to put God first above every earthly pursuit. 📖 Primary Scripture: 1 Samuel 1 🔑 Key Takeaways: • Human comfort cannot replace what only God can heal • True worship is trusting God with what matters most • What we surrender to God is never truly lost • Purpose is greater than possessions • Success without Christ is emptiness • God must remain first above every desire 🙏 Need prayer or want to connect? 👉 https://www.newfaithcw.org/next 📅 See upcoming events and ways to get involved: 👉 https://www.newfaithcw.org/life 🌐 Learn more about New Faith Church: 👉 https://www.newfaithcw.org #Hannah #MothersDay #ChristianSermon #Faith #TrustGod #Surrender #BibleTeaching #ChurchOnline #Jesus #NewFaithChurch
