Vortex Church | Sermon Audio

Too many of us see Jesus as an angry boss who's upset because you can't get everything done or do it right. Jesus never presented himself that way. He came as a KING from heaven.

During this message, you’ll see that our attitude towards the things of God positions us to experience the power of God!

As we open #MIRACLESseries, Pastor Kevin Simmons explores how familiarity can keep us from Gods best for us. Have you ever noticed that you can’t see something fully when you’re too familiar with it?

During this message you’ll see that honor position...
