    “Esther For Such a Time As This” - Freedom! | Pastor David Acton

    Island Church Sunday Service June 7, 2026 | Freedom means, “absence from constraint, empowered to fulfill your purpose.” If we only focus on the first part of the definition, our focus remains inward. If we understand that true biblical freedom means having the power to become the person/believer God created us to be, our focus will be much broader. This week we see how the heroes of our story become truly free when they embrace their purpose!

    “Esther: For Such a Time As This” | There's a Target on Your Back! | Pastor David Acton

    Island Church Sunday Service May 31, 2026 | The honeymoon stage is over, now the battle begins. Esther and Mordecai both have a target on their backs because of who they are and whose they are. Do you ever feel that way too? How do we respond when the enemy has us in his crosshairs?!

    "Esther - For Such a Time As This" | Spiritual Fathers & Mothers | Pastor David Acton

    Island Church Sunday Service May 17, 2026This week we meet a new character in the story of Esther. He became a "father by choice" when he adopted young Esther. That’s what Spiritual Fathers and Mothers do. They choose to be committed and consistently compassionate even when it's not always comfortable in order to raise up the next generation of believers.

    “Esther: For such a time as this…” - How we make decisions | Pastor David Acton

    Island Church Sunday Service May 10, 2026When confronted with the greatest challenge of her life, Queen Esther was asked; “Perhaps you were sent for such a time as this?” How she responded to the huge challenge before her is what makes her one of the great heroes of the Bible. How can we be sure that we won’t miss a God Moment when we see one? How can we live like Esther and "not throw away our shot!”

    We are the Church: Blessing Our World | Pastor David Acton

    Island Church Sunday Service May 3, 2026Why are you here? What brought you or kept you on St Maarten? Family, a job, or even the water and weather didn’t bring you here. You are here on purpose… God’s Purpose. What would it look like if you began living out the purpose that God created you to have?

    We are the Church: Believing in Christ Alone | Pastor David Acton

    Island Church Sunday Service April 26, 2026Our mission statement says that we “Believe in Christ alone.” Well, of course we do. We are a Christian church. It is right there in our name! The danger isn’t in believing in something instead of Jesus, the real danger is believing that Jesus isn’t enough. Believing that we need Jesus PLUS something else. The Apostle Paul faced this same problem in the church of Colossae. His words to them are just as important to us today.

    We Are The Church: Belonging Together | Pastor David Acton

    Island Church Sunday Service April 19, 2026The greatest threat to the Church today does not come from the outside, it comes from within. We have lost our Sense of Belonging! God’s Word reminds us that we Belong to God AND we Belong to each other. This week the Apostle Peter reminds us who we are and to whom we belong.
