Power of the Gospel

Power of the Gospel

March 18, 2020 · 1 hr 4 min

In a frightened world, the Church’s message is not panic—it’s peace. In this episode of The Deep End, Pastor Tim Hatch walks through Acts 10–11 to show the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ and why it remains God’s answer in every crisis.

Peter enters Cornelius’s house (a Gentile home—unthinkable for a devout Jew) and declares a truth the Church must never forget: God shows no partiality. The gospel isn’t for “clean people” or “church people”—it’s for every nation, every background, every story. And when Jesus is preached, something happens that no strategy can manufacture: the Holy Spirit falls on those who hear the Word.

This message also confronts a timeless danger: the Church getting distracted by secondary issues and missing the headline—people getting saved. When God is moving, don’t stand in the way. Keep the essential thing essential: Jesus Christ crucified, risen, reigning, and offering forgiveness of sins to everyone who believes.

You’ll also see how the early Church responded to global hardship (Acts 11): not with fear, but with generosity—sending relief and serving in the middle of suffering. The gospel produces peace, courage, compassion, and action.

If you’re battling anxiety, fear, or uncertainty, this episode will re-center you on the only unshakable foundation: Jesus Christ, Lord of all.
