    Lesson 8: For Their Continued Growth Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 23, 2018
     | 5,440 views

    God should be recognized in even the simplest affairs of life―didn’t Paul instruct believers to, “Pray about everything”? It was never God’s intention for man to direct his own steps; and only those journeys where God is the pilot are truly prosperous.

     | 5,258 views

    This is a very courageous sermon for my congregation, but the most powerful member of the Godhead, the Holy Spirit is working us within, and yet we struggle to believe it. How important therefore is the Holy Spirit in our lives?

    Are you willing to identify the desires of your heart and bring them to a trusted mature spiritual mentor/guide to help you hear the voice of God?
