In this episode of Sermon Notes, host Jay Strother and guest Brandon Hayes, campus and teaching pastor at the church at Harpeth Heights, wrap up the "For the Church" series with a deep dive into Acts 18:18-23. Together, they discuss how the apostle Paul's pattern of everyday faithfulness and intentional discipleship was key to strengthening the early church—not just growing in numbers but building genuine depth and resilience among believers. 

The conversation highlights the rhythms of ministry, the importance of relationships within the church, and the value of spiritual fundamentals like prayer, gospel community, and encouragement. Jay and Brandon also share practical examples from their own pastoral experiences and reflect on how moments of faithfulness—even the understated and unseen—can have lasting impact for the church’s mission today.
