Moving From Captive To Conqueror. David's experience with Saul in the OT provides a practical example of how to move from fear to boldness and then to victory. We unpack this story today and talk about how a tiny spacecraft 6 billion miles from home may change your life.

Many people of God, though set free by faith in Christ remain captives. We are like prisoners sitting our cells though the door is open for us to leave. What keeps Christians bound after Christ has set them free?

President Roosevelt is best know for saying, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." What is fear and why is it the enemy of God?

Every believer in Jesus Christ, male or female, firstborn or last born is the legal inheritor of the blessing of Abraham by surrendering to Christ. So what does that mean in everyday life? A transfer of kingdom authority and power. A transfer of kingdom wealth.

The purpose for God's Blessing on our lives is not personal consumption. He blesses us so that we can be transformed and matured to a place of becoming a blessing to other people. How does that occur? Trials and tests of our faith. How the two are connected is what we discuss today.

What is the curse of the law that Paul tells us we have been delivered from? How does this impact everyday life? Actions steps for breaking the curses that we bring on ourselves.

Scripture teaches that we have been blessed by God, but what does that actually mean? We use it so flippantly and often do not get the benefit God intended.

Ezekiel's vision of the temple gives us an insight about ministry. How far will we go to experience all that God has planned for us? Some like the safety of the river bank, others go to their ankles or knees, while others become completely submerged. We discuss that today.

We are not charged to change people's minds, but to change peoples' hearts. Many aim at the head, when only the Holy Spirit can change the heart. How do we partner with God to accomplish this vital task?

Encountering Jesus ALWAYS produces a change in behavior. If not, salvation has not taken place

George Bernard Shaw said, Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. If you think about it, what does repentance actually mean? Well, it means to change your mind about how you think and act and then decide to live differently. In other words, change. Leo Tolstoy said, Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.

Paul shares the essence of true ministry with his protege Timothy. We look at the soldier, the farmer and the athlete and what they can tell us about day-to-day ministry.

Our most vital ministry is first to the Lord. All others - family, church, society pale in comparison. If we do not recieve first from God, we have nothing to minister to those around us.

Ministry is serving others on Christ's behalf for their benefit. Today, we discuss the main ingredient to do effective ministry.

Most people have a poor idea of what ministry actually is. We think it is professional work requiring education, training and years of experience, but what does scripture teach?

Jesus spent most of his last night on earth describing the person and ministry of the coming Holy Spirit to his followers. He is called their counselor or advocate, their comforter and the one who would teach them, convict them of wrongdoing and guide to show them all that Christ intends.

A major part of learning to flow with the Holy Spirit is understanding how our "senses" work. Paul told the Hebrews that maturity is directly related to enhanced spiritual senses. What does that mean?

Are all believers in Christ baptized with the Holy Spirit. What are the gifts of the Holy Spirit and what are they for? What is cessationism and is it biblical? What is the evidence someone is baptized with the Holy Spirit?

Jesus told us it was vital he leave the earth so that the Holy Spirit could come. Who is this replacement for Christ? How do we contact Him? How do we discern his leadings and voice?

What do prophets do in the church today? How can they be integrated into the life of the church in a way that enhances Ephesians 4:11,12?
