Let's be reminded of the Gospel!

"God sovereignly allows difficulties and trials to enter our life for our recognition of his authority, for the recognition of our dependence, and for His glory and power to be seen in the midst of difficulties."

Christ revealed + Christ received + Church response = Kingdom Results

Recognizing Jesus isn't the same as accepting Jesus

Proximity to Jesus doesn't equal personal relationship with Jesus.

Ministry Fundamentals, Fasting, and Focus.

Jesus is willing, available, and has authority.

Jesus has authority.

"The proclamation of the good news leads to preparation and preparation begins with repentance and repentance leads to the preaching and practice of pointing people to Jesus."
