The message

If the Devil Can't Make You Sin, He'll Make You Busy

You can't give what you don't have.

In Acts 3, Peter and John pass a man who has been unable to walk since birth. They have likely walked past him before, but this time they stop. They have no silver or gold. What they have is Jesus, and they give him away.

In this message from our series The Spirit Empowered Life, we look at what it means to carry the presence of Jesus through the Holy Spirit, the quiet ways we keep God at arm's length, and three simple ways to give Jesus away: through what we do, what we say, and trusting in his power.

Who are you in this story? The disciples, the man at the gate, or the crowd?
