Following a powerful ministry weekend, David Swart challenges the church to become a prophetic culture church. This message dives deep into 1 Corinthians 14:1-5, defining prophecy and showing why it's accessible to every believer (the "saints"). The purpose of prophecy is clear: upbuilding, encouragement, and consolation (Odomi, Paraclesis, Paramia).

Learn why we should eagerly desire spiritual gifts, how to actively grow in prophecy (hint: it requires risk!), and how to properly steward a word the Lord gives you.
