A Different Perspective with Berni Dymet

I want to share a story with you ? a true story ? of a man who found himself drowning in the ocean. And he swam against the tide so hard, it almost killed him. Until God whispered something in his ear. It’s the thing that saved his life. Join Berni Dymet as he takes a look at faith - from a Different Perspective.

When bad things happen to good people, those good people often react. We throw up our hands, we complain and blame and carry on. We struggle and try to change things we can’t change. What if what God really wants us to do is to embrace the journey, He’s got us on? Join Berni Dymet as he takes a look at faith - from a Different Perspective.

Success is about faster, better, bigger, richer ? right? And so when we talk about having faith that moves mountains ? they’re the sort of mountains we want to move. But what if the real power isn’t in that place at all. What if the real power, is when we’re at our weakest and most vulnerable?

Let me ask you something. If God asked you to step out in faith to do something ? something that was going to really cost you a lot in your life ? and then He said 'And by the way, you won’t ever see the results' ? would you do it anyway?

You know, most of us, when we hear about the sort of faith that moves mountains, most of us expect to move the mountains we want to move.

It’s nice to talk about having faith ? it’s much harder to actually put it into practice. To use our faith in the heat of the battle. Why does God allow battles? Why should we have to use faith?

When we’re confronted by a great big mountain ? something that’s blocking our path that we just can’t move ? we kind of expect God to use someone else to move it. Someone bigger. Someone stronger.
