As Alan leads us into week two on our series Preparing For Increase, we learn that if we keep thinking what we've been thinking, we won't be able to perceive who God is calling us to be.

When God is introducing us to a new dimension of purpose, He tells us to prepare. He does not tell us this in vain.

This week we are joined by Banning Liebscher, who shares on what it looks like to live a life of preparing for what God will pour out. Many times the level of outpouring in our lives is determined by our level of preparation.

This week we gather and read from Ezekiel, and hear stories of how God has been moving in and through our missions this year!

This year, we gather to encounter the risen King, but we also long to bring the pain and rejection of our lives to meet with His overcoming, overflowing hope. 

Praise is the sound of weakness becoming strength. When God is renewing a peoples' strength, He renews their praise.

This week, Jeremy brings a message on the invitation and urgency to us to become people of praise in our individual lives of worship.

Today Alan continues exploring what it means to have an expanding faith, and the truth that God's presence remains where people respond.

Jesus is inviting us today to protect the seed of faith until it comes into fulness. There is an atmosphere where faith grows and is cultivated, strengthened, and grown, and it is our responsibility to position our hearts in faith.

We are excited to dive back into God's Word together this week! This week we are stretching our thinking and understanding, to discover how our faith can go beyond imagination into exploration.
