Living the anointed life comes with the crushing that life brings including the victories that God is preparing for us along the way. God has anointed us for a life that requires faith, a running to the battle type of faith, to be more than conquerors over the enemies in our lives for the benefit of others. The enemies that we face and God’s faithfulness in the battle is the very thing that prepares us for the next opportunity in life. 

 

Lee Solomon joins us this morning to share his life testimony and story and to also share that seeking help and advocacy for those that are seeking or living with active addiction can still come to know Christ and lead in ministries to help bring others closer to Christ and to beat their addiction through the Celebrate Recovery Ministry.

 

We take a creative look at the character Zacchaeus and what a typical day may have looked like for him before he sought after Jesus by climbing a tree. We see a story of salvation and outward transformation as Jesus proclaims that he came to seek and save the lost.

Bathsheba is a name that automatically brings up ideas or images of the type of person she was. Today we do a deep drive into the life of this woman silenced by shame and her grief, ultimately for God to grant her a voice and a seat of honor in the kingdom.

The unexpected genealogy of Jesus contains many unexpected turns. Ruth, a foreign woman from Moab, through deep tragedy finds redemption in an unlikely person and place. Through God's providence she finds herself a key figure in the storyline of King David and ultimately Jesus the messiah.

We're focusing on 5 unlikely people in the lineage of Jesus. Each have a messy story that has been redeemed by God. God turns messy stories into messages of grace and hope for the world.

 

The story leading up to Jesus's birth is not perfect and contains many flawed people. Rahab is an unlikely woman to fit into this story. Today, we see how her faith sets her free from a checkered past into glorious future.
