Acts 4:12 — Ordinary People, Extraordinary Power

In this Daily Hope devotional, Pastor John S. Dickerson walks through Acts 4:8–12, where Peter—once fearful and uneducated—boldly proclaims that salvation is found in no one but Jesus Christ. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, ordinary believers become courageous witnesses, and the early church leaders recognize something unmistakable: these men had been with Jesus. This episode invites you to rediscover the transforming power of the Holy Spirit in your own life and challenges you to live in such close relationship with Christ that others can see it. As we continue through the Book of Acts, Pastor John S. Dickerson reminds us that spiritual boldness doesn’t come from talent or training—it comes from walking with Jesus.
