Jumping Into The Cage
by David Acker, KCC Youth Minister I’ve watched Shark Week on the Discovery channel since I was in high school. I have always enjoyed it and been so intrigued by great white sharks. One of the episodes this year included Shaquille O’Neal overcoming his fear and swimming with sharks.

When do people receive the Holy Spirit?
Full Question: When do people receive the Holy Spirit? If it’s when you’re baptized, what about the people in Acts that had been baptized in the name of Jesus, but didn’t receive the Holy Spirit until the Apostles laid hands on them? Excellent question!

Why does the church look and sound more like the world?
As part of our Tough Questions sermon series, we received this question: Question 1: Why does the church look and sound more like the world (it’s music, dress, message, and results)? I don’t’ think this is so much a question as a statement: The church looks and sounds more like the world! What’s going on? If we were in a courtroom, the lawyer would object saying, that you are leading the witness! It’s like the question, “So how long have How COVID has affected us
