"Slavery is relying on yourself." Pastor Ronnie Meek, with a unique blend of history and humor, discusses true freedom - what it is, and what it isn't.

Young Adults Pastor Kevin O’dea brought today’s sermon entitled, “Where the Spirit is, there is Freedom”.   He shared how he feels that God wants us to change from having a freedom experience to have a freedom reality.   Often we come into worship and we get a measure of freedom but because we haven’t truly allowed ourselves to be free, we are still in bondage, shackled and if someone is shackled they cannot live in a reality of freedom.  He shares a dream he had where the Lord showed him who he really is and he also discussed what the true meaning of surrender is – and it is so different from how the world views surrender.

Our Pastor brings a message regarding Fathers utilizing passages from Romans 8 and from the book Ball Four by Jim Boulton. Reading several sections from Jim Boulton’s story, as well as sharing some of his memories of Pastor Harvey Meek. Elaborating on how as time went by they grew in understanding each other better in certain ways. This message hits home on so many levels. Pun intended!

Pastor delves further into praying in the spirit. Discussing the Tent of Meeting and how the Priest were required to keep lamps burning and wicks trimmed. This is a metaphor for our lives. He shows how our life, our prayers, our relationship to the Lord and others is profoundly changed through our prayer language.

You’ve heard it said that “sticks and stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me.” Well, as you’ll hear Pastor Barbie Loflin point out in today’s lesson, words are powerful and they really can hurt us. They can form our lives – a blessing or a curse – as we submit to what we’re told about ourselves. But God has made a way to escape the words that would hold us down as we submit to his powerful words.

“Life can sometimes be complex.” Pastor Meek discusses how the Holy Spirit works through our prayers. There are situations and problems that are just too difficult or complex to know how to pray and that is why we pray in the Spirit. This doesn’t mean we “pray” telling God what He needs to do, but by allowing the Holy Spirit to pray through us. As Pastor states, “We are not encouraged or required to come to God with a solution.” Listen to find out more about Praying in the Spirit.

Our relationships with Christ that began as a joyful dance often become distant because of distraction. And though we may try to fight our way back to that place of peace and joy, our strength will ultimately fail. Listen as Pastor Barbie shares about the power of the Holy Spirit's Blessings of Liberation that free us to continue the dance as though it was never interrupted.

In our final week on the Blessings of the Spirit, Pastor Barbie shares the Blessings of Expanded Capacity with us. And, as you listen, you'll learn some of the ways that God's blessings are always generous beyond what is simply needed and point to something even greater. The fruits, the gifts, and the blessings testify of a God who loved us and a life beyond what we now know - a time when he will bring it all together under one head - even Jesus.

Pastor Ronnie Meek delves into the gift of tongues and interpretation to prepare believers to properly utilize the gifts for the edification if the church.

Pastor Ronnie Meek pulls back the veil on prophecy and words of knowledge explaining how these gifts of utterances are used by God today in the body of Christ - and shows us how we can avoid false prophets.

Elder Rodney Boyd sings, dances and teaches us how the relationship between Jesus and the Holy Spirit informed his ministry and what it means for us.
