Encounter Henley Welcomes Lead Pastor: Tim Littleford

Are you feeling surrounded by "armies" of sickness, debt, or stress? It is easy to let what is visible dictate our reality, but as Pastor Tim Littleford explores in this powerful message, what is visible is often an incomplete picture.

Drawing from the story of Elisha and his servant in 2 Kings, Tim challenges us to trade our "Enlightenment hangovers"—the tendency to separate the rational from the spiritual—for Greater Vision. We learn that the same Spirit that opened the eyes of Elisha’s servant to see chariots of fire is available to us today.

As Encounter Church enters its third year, this episode is a call to move beyond "Supernatural Sundays" and let the reality of God’s unseen kingdom invade our Mondays. Discover how personal knowledge of God provides a confidence that doesn't just fight or flee, but faces every challenge with prayer.
