    Amazing Faith Luke 6:46-6:49 Introduction- Talk to you about faith! If you had to describe your faith, what would it look like? Better yet, how would someone else describe your faith? Is it out of the box? Extreme? Expectant? Or would you have to shaky, unstable, overtaken by times of doubt? I want ...read more

    "Can you help us?”If the question is ever asked of you, where will you go with it? Maybe it won't be direct but cloaked in pain, soaked in questions or the agony of searching for an answer when no answers come.

    The Holy Spirit does not work through a vacuum but through believers, the body of Christ. The first church set us a good example: Build on the foundation of God’s Word, build a strong fellowship, and make prayer a priority.

Something the apostles have not done before. • But it looks like a smooth start. ...read more
