She didn’t know going to the well that day was a Divine appointment with the Savior of the world. She just needed water for the day, but Jesus showed her He could provide what she needed for all eternity. And after that one meeting at the well, her mission became clear… tell everyone she knew to come and see what Jesus had done.

Changed… Different… Set apart. It’s what God wants us to be. The saying “God loves you just the way you are” is true… He really does. But that’s not the end; it’s just the beginning. Because God loves us far too much to leave us that way.

Once we meet the Savior, He’s all about the transformation… the old being made new because He placed us here in this world that desperately needs to see the difference in us. And as believers… His children… we wear His name. And God wants our life to be “A Marked Life” that says to the world around us, I have decided to follow Jesus… no turning back.

As humans, we like options. But while options work for some aspects of life, when it comes to how a person receives salvation, there are no options. Jesus didn’t give us add-ons or a process… it’s clearly spelled out in John 3 …“When Jesus Said ‘You Must!’”

God has a mission for each of us. But we can allow our doubt and fear to get in the way of His mission being accomplished through us. We’ll look at the life of Gideon to see how when God says “go,” He gives us everything we need.

The words “I have learned the secret of being content…” were written by a man who had been shipwrecked… beaten… imprisoned… stoned… and more.

But rather than be discontent in his circumstances, Paul kept his focus on his Savior, knowing that no matter how big the trials he faced, his God was bigger.

It’s a given that you’re going to go through hard times… the question is, “How Big Is Your God?”

Welcoming our missionary friends, Chris and Joni Weaver, as Pastor Harrell has a conversation with them about Malawi, Africa. Then Chris preaches from the book of Isaiah.

We’re dedicating the entire morning to communion. It’s the time we set aside to reflect on the greatest gift ever given…the sacrifice that Jesus made for each of us on the cross.

Life is full of the unexpected and the unwanted. What we say and do when those times come often reveal our true character.

When we look at God’s Word, we see David faced one of these times. And we can learn a lot from how he reacts “When God Says ‘No.’”

When it comes to power, “all” is THE word to describe our God. He is all-powerful.

We want power, and we strive for power, but we’ll never come close to having—or even fully comprehending “The Power of God.”

His power wasn’t attained, it isn’t just a part of Him, and He doesn’t turn it on and off… God’s power is Who He is… 100% of the time.
