God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. That’s the story of the birth of the church in Antioch in Acts 11. God wants to do more of this today, so here Dan inspires us to seek that and be open to how that could happen.

Small Beginnings -

September 08, 2019 00:00 - 1.4 KB

Hezekiah was one of the great kings of Israel whose life shows us what it looks like when we respond to God’s grace and calling, and walk according to God’s order. Raph Mrode teaches us about this, as well as how to handle overwhelming circumstances, and the risk of focusing on the wrong things.

Solomon -

August 04, 2019 00:00 - 1.4 KB

In this preach we hear how the temple that Solomon built highlighted that Jesus would come as the temple, and shows the process of God’s presence going from being unreachable to being something that we get to carry with us every day.

David -

David partly fulfills the covenant promises made to Abraham and Moses and therefore is a foreshadowing of who Christ will be to His people.

Ruth -

Judah -
