Ep. 258 – POWER, Not Power

from The Leader’s Notebook with Dr. Mark Rutland Hosted by Dr. Mark Rutland

In this powerful message from Acts 1:1–8, Dr. Mark Rutland explores the profound communication struggle between God and humanity. Though God's message is perfect, it is received through our broken, fallen nature—leading to confusion about the very Kingdom Jesus came to reveal. Dr. Rutland illustrates how even the apostles misunderstood Christ's teachings on power, expecting military strength when Jesus offered spiritual authority. Through vivid examples—from the humanity of Jesus to Peter’s sword in Gethsemane—this sermon challenges listeners to rethink what it means to receive true power through the Holy Spirit. Power not to conquer, but to carry the cross.
