FEATURED MESSAGES

It only takes a little spark to set a forest on fire! The tongue is such a small part of the body, yet so powerful in its ability to shape the words that create our existence. In this message, you will be encouraged to tame your tongue and pay attention to how your words align with God’s Truth or give an access point to satan’s lies. You always have a choice. SUGGESTED QUESTIONS & CONVERSATION POINTS: 1. Share a time when the words of a parent or someone of influence deeply affected you. What did it to your outlook on life and how you viewed yourself? 2. Has there been someone in your life whose words have built you up and filled you with courage? Share the experience. 3. During today’s message, have you become aware of certain words you’ve been speaking about yourself, your family and your situation? Now take time to craft words that bring God’s truth into it. The words may actually be the exact opposite of what you’ve been speaking. 4. Have you become aware of an “access point” that your words have opened for the devil? (i.e. Words of agreement that have been spoken). Pray in faith and in the authority of Jesus’ Name to shut that access point and with every word freshly spoken, seal it and release a new reality...create a new existence. 5. Craft a declaration that you can recite each day that will help align your course (like the rudder of a ship) and set you up for a great day. Below is an example of what we use: TODAY I CHOOSE...to pursue intimacy with God above all else. Jesus is the Vine and I am the branches. He is my source of life. I claim my inheritance as a child of God, of righteousness, peace, joy and hope. I lay at God's feet any weight that is not mine to carry and pick up His yoke that is easy and light. I am Spirit-filled, so I bless my spirit to lead my mind, my body, my will and emotions. By my Father's enduring faithfulness, I look to Heaven to see what He is doing. I receive eyes to see, ears to hear and courageous faith to respond without hesitation. Today, I lean into God's whisper as I join Him in what He is blessing. This is going to be a great day on my Father's feet. Amen

It’s quite astounding to think, that in just one day – ONE day – the Church went from being a small group of fear-filled, weak-willed and unskilled individuals to being a massive group of Spirit-filled believers that would change the world. In this message, Jeff Benson unpacks the essentials of what it takes to see the Holy Spirit move again in power in our generation. SUGGESTED QUESTIONS & CONVERSATION POINTS: 1. What difference has your relationship with the Holy Spirit made in your life? What has He done for you? 2. The Disciples were required to wait until the promise of The Father (Holy Spirit outpouring) came. Discuss the wisdom in waiting and why Jesus did not allow them to begin their mission prematurely. 3. If God is going to move in great power, He looks for willing and ready people. What does it take to be ready and how can you prepare for greater things? 4. Read Acts 2:1-4 and Acts 4:31. We see that the filling of the Holy Spirit was not a one-time event. Can we expect the same experience today? Why did they, do we, need to be refilled? 5. This Pentecost Sunday, spend time praying for the fire of the Spirit to consume you and for a mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Pray for revival and reformation. Pray that the Church today will see great breakthroughs and growth as in the Book of Acts. Church Copyright 180833 Church Video 11170 Church Broadcasting? 310696

You know the feeling of a smell that suddenly pervades your space? Well, you may be surprised, but God uses that example as a way to describe your life and purpose. A smell has great power to effect change. It can bring joy, promote peace, make you feel good and shift your focus. But what can happen when the fragrance of God’s love rests upon you? In this message you will be reminded of the awesome power of God’s presence upon His followers. SUGGESTED QUESTIONS & CONVERSATION POINTS: 1. Describe a smell that has an effect on you. It could be a memory that comes up or a feeling you get. 2. The power of a fragrance changes an atmosphere. Read 2 Corinthians 2:14-16. What is the purpose of believers carrying the fragrance of Christ upon them? 3. How can you be intentional about carrying the aroma of life (i.e. the fragrance of Christ) into the rooms and spaces that you enter. What difference could be made? 4. Share a testimony of how the presence of God in a room affected the people that were there. How did you notice Him? 5. Pray that we will live more aware of the One upon us and for wisdom on how to release the fragrance of Christ over the people we come into contact with.

Everyone is on a search…a search for meaning, purpose and identity. As the followers of Jesus, we possess the answer to humanity’s deepest longings, but what are we doing with that gift? In this message, you will be inspired by a compelling vision of what you are inviting others to experience for themselves. The people in your town need what you have…show them what it looks like! SUGGESTED QUESTIONS and CONVERSATION POINTS: 1. In a very brief statement, describe the Good News of Jesus in a way that someone without a religious background would understand. Is the invitation compelling and worth them considering? 2. How are you praying, blessing and interceding for your town? 3. What have you discovered about the spiritual condition of your region and how are you taking authority over it? 4. How has the “abundant life” that Jesus gives, impacted your life? How can this be communicated to others? 5. What key areas of conversation with the lost are beneficial when seeking to touch their hearts, not just engage their minds? (E.g., a person’s true identity, the need for belonging, the inner desire to be known and valued, the peace that only Jesus can give, freedom from their past and forgiveness of sins etc…) 6. Spend time together praying for your town and pray for greater opportunities to share the love of Christ. Pray as the Spirit leads.
