Everyone has personality giftings so that they can build up each other into the fullness of Christ. It isn't just the staff's job to equip the saints. Every saint equips other saints. Ephesians 4:7-16

We gather to strengthen each other so that we have faith in the Living God. Strengthening each other happens through encouragement and challenging. Who do you have in your life that strengthens you?

Sin is like pouring the wrong gasoline into our soul and expecting the performance to be the same. How intense are we willing to get to flush out our system and get the gasonline of the Holy Spirit through our soul? Finding a Super Small Group to share in carrying the burden of our sin will help us break free of the cycle of sin.

Love means we use our freedom in Christ to serve others. If we have a list of "Have to's" we will use our freedom to attack and devour each other. Serving allows Eternal Life to flow. Attacking cuts off Eternal Life. Which one do you want to do?

Perfect love drives out fear. If we fear or if we lead by fear, it is all about being punished...or tormented. Perfect love drives out this fear becuase we focus on discipline...bringing others to share in God's holiness. Community causes friction and love is the oil to reduce friction and the impact of friction so that Eternal Life can flow through the souls of all the Community.

God sent angels to tell Daniel he was treasured by God. For you, he sent his Son to die to give you a backstage pass into his Throne Room, he gives you his Spirit (instead of an angel) to be with you continuously. He treasures you. Keep going in prayer. Let God work because you know he treasures you. Daniel 9:20-23; Daniel 10:10-11; Daniel 10:18-19

What happens when it seems like God is not answering your prayer? What happens when it seems like the opposite of your prayer is happening? Keep praying. Jesus experienced a delayed response from God. That delayed response led to Jesus being the source of Eternal Life because he resurrected from the grave. Hebrews 5:7-10
