In this episode of My Ministry Mission, we follow the apostle Paul as he arrives in Jerusalem and finds himself on trial for the gospel. Covering Acts 21:18–23:11, this episode explores how Paul faithfully testifies to Jesus Christ while facing religious opposition, false accusations, and political scrutiny. Through Paul’s courage and obedience, we’re reminded that standing firm in our faith may lead to misunderstanding, but God remains sovereign in every moment. This message encourages believers to trust their calling and remain faithful, even when obedience comes at a cost. References to Bible Verses: Acts 21:18–26; Acts 21:27–36; Romans 14:19; John [...]

This episode will walk through Paul’s Third Missionary Journey in the book of Acts, focusing on his powerful ministry in Ephesus and the road that ultimately leads him to Jerusalem. Together, we explore Acts 19:1–21:17 and see how spiritual warfare, deep discipleship, and unwavering perseverance shaped both Paul’s mission and the early church. We'll highlight why Christianity is more than a one-time decision, it’s a lifelong process of formation. From confronting idols and false teaching to pouring into leaders and embracing obedience even when it’s costly, Paul’s journey challenges us to invest in others for lasting Kingdom impact. Whether you’re [...]

In this episode, I walk through Paul’s Second Missionary Journey and explore how God advances the gospel through closed doors, unexpected people, and Spirit-led redirection. From Timothy joining the mission, to a vision that carries the gospel into Europe, to quiet conversions by a riverbank and worship in a prison at midnight, this journey shows us that God’s plans are often bigger, and stranger, than anything we would design ourselves. Along the way, we encounter Lydia, the Philippian jailer, skeptical philosophers in Athens, and faithful believers who shape the future of the church in ways that rarely make headlines. This [...]

In this episode I will walk through Acts 15, a pivotal moment in church history, the Council at Jerusalem. This wasn’t just a disagreement over tradition; it was a defining moment where the gospel itself was clarified. Together, we explore the tension between grace and legalism, asking the same question the early church had to face: Is faith in Jesus enough, or do we add rules to salvation? I unpack Peter’s testimony, Paul and Barnabas’ missionary evidence, and James’ Scripture-anchored wisdom to show how the early church defended truth without weaponizing it. This episode speaks directly to modern believers navigating [...]

In this episode I walk through Paul and Barnabas’ first missionary journey in Acts chapters 13 and 14, exploring how the early church carried the gospel into hostile and unfamiliar territory. We see evangelism in action, powerful miracles that confirm God’s message, and intense opposition that fails to stop the work of the Holy Spirit. This journey reminds us that faithfulness matters more than results and that God often uses ordinary believers to accomplish eternal purposes. From Antioch to Cyprus, Iconium, Lystra, and back again, this episode shows how the gospel advances through obedience, perseverance, and God’s grace, no matter [...]

In this episode, I seek to explore what it truly means to start fresh in Christ by embracing a new identity, leaving the past where it belongs, and building spiritual rhythms instead of empty resolutions. Drawing from Scripture, I'll share how ongoing struggle can actually be evidence of real spiritual transformation. Whether you’re entering this year hopeful, weary, or uncertain, I pray this episode will encourage you to step forward in faith, trust God’s [...]

In this Christmas episode, I want to open up about navigating the holidays after loss, rediscovering the true meaning of Christmas, and finding hope in Jesus when grief seems to change things. From the childhood magic I once knew to the adult sorrow I now face, I share how the miracle of Christ’s birth brings light into dark seasons and comfort when there’s an empty chair at the table. If you’re walking through grief, longing for joy, or simply needing a reminder of God’s presence this December, I invite you to join me as we lean into the Savior who [...]

In this episode of My Ministry Mission, I walk through Acts 12 and explore how God powerfully delivers Peter from prison, humbles King Herod, and proves that no earthly force can stop His plans. Through persecution, prayer, and miraculous intervention, we see the unstoppable advance of God’s Word and learn how to trust His sovereignty, pray boldly, and live with unshakable faith today.

This episode offers hope, clarity, and a reminder [...]

In this episode, we explore the rise of the church in Antioch through Acts 11:19–30, uncovering how God used ordinary believers, cross-cultural unity, intentional discipleship, and generous compassion to build one of the most influential churches in early Christianity. Discover how persecution propelled the gospel, why Barnabas and Saul shaped Antioch into a disciple-making movement, and what it means for today’s believers to embrace a bold, Christ-centered identity. I hope this episode equips listeners to share Christ courageously, love across cultural lines, grow deeply as disciples, and give generously, living out the transformative Antioch model in everyday life.
