Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jun 18, 2024

A Journey Towards Transformation: "The Damascus Road” Series

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Mar 1, 2024

In a moment, Paul was transformed, where the confronter became the confronted. The hunter became the hunted. The accuser was now the accused. And while he thought he had the authority, in that moment he found himself powerless when he heard the true voice of authority.

Total Surrender - The Transformation Of Saul To Paul

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Jul 5, 2024

Have you ever wondered what "Total Surrender" looks like? Through the Saul-Paul story, we learn that true surrender involves giving up control and submitting our will, thoughts, desires, and ambitions to God.

Acts 9:1-19 Total surrender is a foundational aspect of our spiritual journey. It requires us to fully trust in God and align our hearts, desires, thoughts, and beliefs with His will. This process is not easy, but the rewards are immeasurable. One powerful example of complete surrender can be seen ...read more

Leading Of The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Samuel M on Jul 9, 2024

The New Testament church did not have technology such as telephones to communicate across long or short distances when there was an urgent need. It had the leading of the Holy Spirit. When people were in desperate need of prayer, the Holy Spirit would lead certain people to pray for them.
