Derek Mack preaches on what God does in delay. Using the story of Joseph from the Bible and notes from theologian Bob Sorge, he shares how God can use a season of delayed promises or unanswered prayers to get us back to a place of fruitfulness. We learn that in order to suffer rightly, we have to have the right perspective and belief about what is going on.
Nick Brennt speaks on the love of God. He emphasizes that since God is love, all other attributes of God's character flow from a place of love. We are reminded that Jesus is a reflection of God and therefore an example of counter cultural love for us to imitate. We are challenged to see opportunity to love others.
Zach Nash dives into the importance of cultivating a culture of honor. He shares Biblical examples of honor and we learn how dishonor can put a ceiling on the miraculous. Zach leaves us with practical ways we can honor the people around us.
Andy Byrd brings us into the divine storyline of the Send. He emphasizes that when we focus on what God has promised, it puts everything else into perspective and keeps us from striving to create our own story. Through the history of the Send, we learn the importance of having clarity over what God has spoken so that we are not easily deterred by other voices. Andy commissions us into the harvest.
Andy Byrd gives some practical keys to diving into the Word. He explains how to develop the habit of not only reading the Bible cover to cover, but also studying the context of passages, turning verses into prayers, and writing out our own commentary on what we read.
Andy Byrd shares about the importance of having a vibrant relationship with the Word of God. We learn three paradigms that we should consider when we approach reading the Bible: the presence of the author, love for the author and the need for first hand revelation.
