What We Need to Succeed
What direction is your life headed? Does the overall purpose you are pursuing have eternity’s values in view? If it does not, I urge you to change your direction. If it does, rely on God’s power and give yourself diligently to it.
The King’s Table
God is not out to “get” something from us. He does not need anyone or anything. He is whole and complete as He is. He receives great satisfaction in giving. His kindness is so abundant and overflowing that He looks for an outlet to bless. He has sent His Son to seek us out.
Both/And Healthy Emotions and Faith
Sometimes when we are working through emotional challenges it feels like there is a cloud hanging over our heads. We can feel stuck and frustrated. What do we do with this?
Order of Service
So what is it going to be? Which are we, lover or prostitute? There are no prostitutes in heaven, or in the Kingdom of God for that matter, but there are plenty of former prostitutes in both places. Take it from a recovering prostitute when I say there is no substitute for unconditional, intimate relationship with God. And I mean there is no palatable substitute available to us (take another look at Matthew 7:21-23 sometime). We must choose.
Faith That Changes Everything
When we share the Good News, there will be miracles. We can trust the Lord for the miraculous.
People don’t want just facts and information they want the reality of a changed life.
Theme: God wants to use us to perform miracles.
Text: John 14:12-14
Here’s a thought: God wants us to be witnesses, not to try and witness.

You are Wrong!
Power is necessary so that we can be witnesses. Acts 1:8 (ESV) 'But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.' Holy Spirit empowers us to bear witness, to be a witness in this world.
There are two C’s in Church
Jesus builds His church on this foundation of faith with building blocks that include: Cause (Matthew 28:16-20) and Community (Acts 2:42-47).

Life Has Its Ups and Downs

By acknowledging Him, we receive His acknowledgment before the angels. The message emphasizes the importance of surrendering to God and allowing Him into every aspect of our lives.

How to Walk on Water
This message explores the story of Peter walking on water, emphasizing obedience to God's word, stepping out of our comfort zones, keeping our focus on Jesus, and seeking help when facing challenges.
Good Things Come to Those Who Wait
In Acts 1:1-14, Jesus tells His disciples to wait for the promised Holy Spirit instead of charging ahead. Waiting humbles us, breaking our self-sufficiency. Trusting the Holy Spirit brings power to live Spirit-filled lives. Eternal results depend on obedience, surrender, and reliance on God's timing and power.
The Position of the Spirit Realm
We are spirit, soul, and body. Through Jesus, death no longer reigns. Our connection to Him changes everything. Stop accepting the 'normal' and embrace the Spirit Realm's power for health and abundant life.
