Episode 141: Word Without Power

 

Let’s disclose the elephant in the room. Christians talk far more about God’s power than we actually operate in God’s power. It would seem that the current comfort zone in the American Church is to declare with our mouths how supernaturally powerful God is while, at the same time, being negligent to display with our hands how supernaturally powerful God is. There is a disconnect. In one account in Mark’s Gospel, we are given a prophetic glimpse at where much of the Church is today. Three disciples move from the mountaintop of supernatural encounter back down to the foot of the mountain where the supernatural power given to them meets its kryptonite. Christians lose credibility when we get used to being impotent in areas of healing and deliverance. God is exposing our missing ingredient and this episode of mavericks & Misfits will tell us what that missing ingredient is.
