his week, Pastor Les Cody teaches on the Spirit of Adoption, drawing insights from Genesis 38. He defines the orphan spirit and contrasts it with the qualities of those who walk in the Spirit of Adoption. Pastor Les also addresses how the idolization of bloodlines, heritage, family name, ethnic pride, and legacy rooted in surname rather than in the Lordship of Christ can distract from the true authority and power found in the Spirit of Adoption.  He outlines nine key characteristics of the Spirit of Adoption, illustrating each with examples of how they are lived out by those who rest in the Spirit of Adoption. 

The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God.

At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God. Each week, you will hear a teaching from our Lead Pastors, Les and Nikki Cody or another leader in our community.
