Power Shifts - Actions Premium Sermon

Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023

This sermon series explores the concept of "Power Shifts", focusing on how personal changes in attitude, actions, alignment, abundance, and anointing can help the church fulfill the Great Commission and reach the 41% of the global population who have not yet heard of God's love.

What Is Love in Action? Why say “I love you?” “I love you” is an empty phrase without a demonstration of commitment and a willingness to sacrifice with some type of action. “Actions speak louder than words,” undergirds much of Scripture. The apostle John clearly indicated throughout his writings ...read more
