Understanding who you are in Christ is a faith accelerant! If you think that God is seeing everything that you're doing wrong and holding it against you, it will hinder your faith.

You are responsible to follow the Holy Spirit for your life. The inward witness and the inward voice of the Holy Spirit SHOULD affect how you live your life! The best way to hear the still, small voice is to get quiet. When this message takes root in your life it will impact you more than most any other message will.

How does the Holy Spirit lead us? One of the ways is with the inward witness. What is a witness? An inward knowing, a prompting, a peace, or an impression. It is not a voice, it is an inward sensing. God is going to lead us in our Spirit. He is not going to lead us in our mind or with our feelings. We are in-tune with our intellect and our body but that is not where God leads us. We need to tune i...

Pastors Darrin and Laura discuss what a spiritual life looks like under the rule of the Holy Spirit vs. a fleshly ruled life.

God breathed life into man and he became a living being. We were created to function as SPIRITUAL BEINGS.   Man sinned and became spiritually dead and separated from God. Sin separates us from the presence of God. A life separate from God is a life governed by Satan, by emotion, and by our physical senses. It is NOT a wonderful life! Why is it so hard for Christians to walk by faith, maintain peac...

We must uncover the born again man's GREAT need for spiritual growth. What does a spiritual life look like? A spiritual life is one that is governed by belief rather than physical faculties and emotional reasoning.

So much of our time, energy and focus is put towards our body.  The body is temporal and decaying everyday but the spirit is eternal. Romans 12:1-2 - I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 2  And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your...

The spiritual leader is someone who is following God as well as influencing others towards that end!  1 Thess 5:23   " Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." We ARE a spirit. We HAVE a soul. We LIVE in a body. Say this.. "I am a spirit. I possess a soul - a mind, will, and i...

What is a Spiritual Leader? A Spiritual Leader is someone who follows God... From their spirit.  Sounds simple enough right? But it's not so easy.  We have to be taught how to do this.  Not knowing how to do this will limit you and I in our ability to carry out our assignments given to us by the Father!  What is Spirit?  The world has hopelessly misrepresented these truths.  Proverbs 20:27 "The sp...
