Austin Oaks Church

Pentecost

Acts 2 covers the story of Pentecost, where the Holy Spirit comes upon the early church with fire and enables them to preach in multiple languages. There's a lot of imagery used in the story that can make it hard for to us understand, so this week Pastor Chad sets out to answer 3 basic questions: What did God do? Why did He do it like that? And How should we respond?

Build Your Church Here

The church exists because of Jesus. We're here to continue His mission in the world. All throughout this series we're looking back to the beginning of the church and why it was founded to see what drives us into our mission here today.

Through Samaria

Here at Austin Oaks Church, our passion is to help you meet, know, and follow Jesus. But what does it mean to follow Him? Is it just your own personal disciplines, or something more? Join us this week as Pastor Brandon looks at a few key stories from Jesus's life and encourages us to do the things that He did.

Burn The Plows

If you follow Jesus, will you be fulfilled. Sometimes it's hard to believe because often it doesn't look like what we thought it would. Often what really brings us lasting fulfillment comes through things we really don't want to have to do. This week Pastor Brandon takes a look at an Old Testament story that shows us what it looks like to be fully committed and what that requires of us.

What Do You Want?

The New Year brings with it all kinds of opportunities for change and growth, but do these resolutions ever really stick? Do they really paint the right picture of who we want to be? Or maybe a better question is, who does God want us to be? Join us this week as Pastor Brandon talks about what God wants for each one of us and how we are to grow in spiritual formation.

How To Find A New Fire In This New Year

What are looking forward to in 2022? Have you made your resolutions yet? Well, as you're thinking through the next year, we'd like to challenge you to dedicate yourself to prayer and see what God will do in and through you as you give yourself to Him. This week Pastor Charles Mugisha of Africa New Life joins us to give us a glimpse of what it could look like when you cultivate a passion for God.

Artificial Light

Jesus is the light of the world. But so often, we tend to follow after lesser lights. Can they ever really satisfy? What is it about Jesus that makes Him the better option?

Joy to the World

What can we learn from Buddy the Elf about Christmas? This week Brandon takes us to the end of the gospel of  Luke and Jesus's resurrection, bringing joy to his disciples and providing us with a living hope.

Spreading Cheer

After Jesus's death, the disciples were distraught. Their hope seemed to be gone. But in Luke 24, we see Jesus back on the earth, encouraging his disciples to not only grow in their faith, but proclaim it to the world. Join us this week as Pastor Brandon shows us what we can learn from this story, as well as how it coincides with the Christmas season.

The Darkest Day

Jesus's death and resurrection lies at the heart of Christianity. But what's so important that we see in the middle of all the suffering? This week Josh highlights some of the things that God was doing under the surface through Jesus's death and how it all came to light in the resurrection.
