Luke’s Gospel, in the third chapter, takes us all the way back ...read more

Christ And The Hungry Multitude Series

The Gift Of Discerning Of Spirits Series

Contributed by Donna Kazenske on Nov 17, 2002

Discerning of spirits is such a vital gift to the body of Christ. The enemy has gotten away with a lot of demonic manifestations in our church services because the gift of discerning of spirits was not functioning in the leadership.

Perfect… You’re Not Perfect… ~ God

Contributed by Philip Foster on Jan 26, 2013

God doesn't perfect us... then bring us into the church and into church leadership. He perfects us through change, challenge and allows His will to be done through imperfect people.
