Formed Under Pressure

About this episode

Pastor Jordan Martin discusses how God uses pressure and trials to reveal our true selves and calls the church to full devotion and unity.

In this message from Acts 4, Pastor Jordan Martinounpacks how God uses pressure, trials, and opposition—like Peter and John facing the religious leaders—to reveal what’s really in us and to produce the “oil” of a bold, authentic witness. He calls the church to move from casual interest to full devotion, resting in God’s sovereignty, praying for boldness, and living as a unified, Spirit-filled Ekklesia that cannot be silenced.
