The Prayer of a Servant

Mike Sullivan

In Jesus, we see a perfect model of a life of ministry dependent of the Holy Spirit, rooted in prayer. Christians today are also called to love and serve others through the power of the Holy Spirit, who supplies all we need when resources and power are otherwise scarce. Three key attitudes when asking God to help us serve others are to have a willingness to serve, to recognize our helplessness, and to be shamelessly audacious in prayer.

The Holy Spirit

Gary DeLashmutt

Luke 11:1-13

A passage concerning what Jesus taught about the Holy Spirit's future role in His followers' lives. It's a promise of the Holy Spirit's provision for Christians who serve others. If we want to be effective servants, three attitudes are necessary: 1) willingness to serve; 2) seeing our helplessness in meeting people's deepest needs; and 3) shameless audacity in asking God for help. When we ask Him in faith, He will give us whatever provision of the Holy Spirit we need in order to serve others as His representatives.\r\n

Who is the Holy Spirit and Why is He So Important?

Mike Sullivan

Luke 11:1-13

The Holy Spirit is mentioned dozens of times in the New Testament, yet many Christians find themselves knowing little about Him. Who exactly is the Holy Spirit, and why is He so important? In fact, He has many roles in the world and we should pray for increased understanding and appreciation of His role in our lives, that we could have greater anticipation of His work in every situation, and that we could become more responsive to His leading.

Supernatural Living!

Jim Leffel

Galatians 5:13

Romans 8 describes God's great rebuilding program, addressing the brokenness that troubles all of us, including those who have a relationship with God through Christ. The first part of the chapter focuses on the Holy Spirit's role in allowing us to find freedom from the domination and defeat of sin that God says is possible. This is not accomplished through our effort, but by God's Spirit indwelling us, changing us from the inside out. The passage lists 3 main ways in which the Spirit works: he leads, he testifies to God's love for us, and he intercedes for us. Our part is to "walk by the Spirit" and to set our minds on God's truth.

Walking by the Spirit

Scott Risley

Romans 8:1-17

After explaining the role of the law and how it leads to bondage when we try to live by it, Paul now describes a life of freedom as we live by the Spirit--one that delights in spending time with God and enjoys a relationship of love and trust with our heavenly father.

Ben Foust

Acts 11:19-30

The early church continues to spread, from Jerusalem to Judea and Samaria, and now to gentiles in Antioch. Sent by the Holy Spirit, Paul and Barnabas set out on their first missionary journey, beginning the spread of the gospel to the "remotest parts of the earth." From their story, Christians today can draw principles for doing God's work.

Trinity Basics for Spiritual Conversations

Dave Schutter

John 3:16

The reality of the Trinity is an important truth both to support our discipleship and our evangelism. As we see Scripture's witness to God as the Trinity, we mature in our faith and grow in our confidence, which in turn helps our evangelistic conversations improve. Through studying the Trinity in Scripture, this doctrinal truth can become a truth that is both relational and relevant for us. This workshop helps us extract key truths about the Trinity from Scripture and consider how to thoughtful converse about this topic with non-Christians.
