Second in a series on the early church. The first of a two-part message on how to get plugged into the power of the Holy Spirit.
It is a sin to be good if God has called us to be great.” Last week we began a journey to see how God can take our church from good to great. In Acts Chapter 1, we saw that Jesus commanded his followers to wait for the power that would come upon them when they received the Holy Spirit. But while ...read more

I think you’ll be convicted, challenged, and encouraged, but to get there you’ll need to put aside ...read more

Raising people from the dead is a pretty magnificent work I doubt any one of us could pull off, let alone attempt. At this point, however, I think it might be good for ...read more
