God Chose You—To Be His | The Chosen | 4/9/23

The story of Jesus is so big, so powerful, that it is a deeply intimate story. It’s about God, the Creator of the Universe and beyond, Who Chose You—To Be His.
It’s the story of God, who is so BIG, not just choosing a nation, not just choosing a group of people, but God choosing individuals—every individual. God chose to make it possible for anyone and everyone who wants Him, to have Him. Not to have Him as THEY want Him. But to have Him and love Him AS HE IS.

He Chose You—To Deliver | The Chosen | 4/2/23

God made a way for you to leave your life of brokenness, imprisonment, entrapment, and pain behind you. 
You are called into a new life of freedom, wholeness, purpose, meaning, hope, health, friendship, true intimacy, adventure, and so much more in the Kingdom of God!
God chose you—to deliver you.

He Chose You, to Send | The Chosen | 3/26/23

Some people come into God’s Kingdom and struggle:
• with depression, 
• struggle to feel connected. 
• They have a hard time hearing from God. 
• They never get to see God do something tangible. 
• They get stuck watching everyone else do their part. 

Eventually, they don’t even believe being in His Kingdom matters. So they fall away discouraged, never knowing what the problem was.
God has chosen you, to send. To send you into this world with His message.

He Chose You | The Chosen | 3/19/23

The Bible is the story of God’s pursuit of you. It’s the story of what God has been willing to do to find you. 
When you pick up this book and begin to read all the way from Genesis, the story of Creation, The Flood, The Tower of Babel, Abraham, the Nation of Israel, them being slaves in Egypt, and their deliverance out of Egypt, and all of the stories of King David, the prophets, the Temple, Jesus being born and dying and raising from the dead, the disciples going out all over and starting churches, Christians giving their lives for the cause of Christ all throughout church history---ALL OF IT IS THE STORY OF GOD CHOOSING YOU!

Experiencing God Through Empowerment| Experiencing God | 3/12/23

In your life, as a believer in Christ, God has equipped you, and He wants to empower you to live this life victoriously. 
And God is so wise and amazing, that when He put all of this together for you, He didn’t complicate it.

Experiencing God Through the Team | Experiencing God | 3/5/23

All of our gifts, talents, experiences in life, failures and successes only become truly meaningful as you become a part of the team.
Who you are, where you’ve been, what you’ve done, and what you’ve experienced are all important factors for knowing how God can use you on His team.
But, to be useful to God’s team, you have to give yourself over to Him.

Experiencing God Through Adoration| Experiencing God | 2/26/23

When you adore God, worship God, you are getting to the best you can possibly be. 
When you adore Him, you lay aside your insecurities and welcome Him into your life as someone much greater than you, there is mental and emotional health.
Worshiping Him means you are putting Him where He needs to be in your life.

Experiencing God Through Learning | Experiencing God | 2/19/23

When it comes to a relationship with God, it is important that you learn what He wants you to learn about Him.
If you aren’t careful, you can spend your life looking for the wrong information about God instead of finding what He wants you to find. I’m going to teach you today how to find the things in Scripture that are most important to find.

 

Evangelism | Experiencing God | 2/12/23

Evangelism, simply put, is sharing the story of Jesus with someone. When you share Jesus with someone, you experience God in a new way. 
You experience God’s Spirit speaking through you. 
You experience God’s Spirit giving you boldness, courage, and strength. 
You experience God’s Spirit giving you words to say, reminding you of Scriptures you have heard, learned or memorized. 
And you experience what it is like to see God do for someone else what He did for you!

Experiencing God in Relationship | Experiencing God | 2/5/2023

The biggest test of your life is what you think about God. Who do you choose to believe God is? Some mean monster? A big do-nothing?
One thing Jesus communicated over and over was how He and the Father had a relationship, and how the Father wanted that with us.
If you are wondering what God wants from you, this is it.
