KCLC Radio: Believe it or Not 7.26.26 9:30am

Drawing from the account of the healing of a lame man at the Beautiful Gate in Acts 3, this sermon explores how the grace of God arrives unexpectedly and precisely when it is most needed. The pastor uses the classic TV theme song "Believe It or Not" from The Greatest American Hero as a cultural touchpoint to illustrate the experience of sudden, undeserved transformation. The sermon challenges believers who have settled into spiritual and emotional ruts, reminding them that God has not forgotten them and that their story is not finished. Beyond personal renewal, the sermon calls the church to active participation in grace -- to be links in a chain of secondhand faith passed down through generations -- serving others at their "beautiful gates" of being stuck, and sharing the love of Jesus with boldness rather than passive sympathy.
