Anthony Longoria shares practical next steps for how we can continue to experience the Ministries of Jesus in our lives.

Anointing

September 17, 2023 • Anthony Longoria • 1 Corinthians 6:19, 2 Corinthians 1:21–22, 1 John 2:20, Luke 4:16–18, Acts 10:38

Lead Pastor Anthony Longoria explains what anointing is. 1. Pastor Anthony mentioned that most people, believers and unbelievers, are comfortable hearing about God and Jesus, but aren’t as comfortable hearing about the Holy Spirit. Is this your experience? Talk about what you've been taught (or not) about the Holy Spirit. 2. The bible says that every good and perfect gift comes from the Father and one of the greatest gifts we’ve been given is the Holy Spirit. He is our comforter, counselor, advocate, and so much more. Do you see your relationship with the Holy Spirit as a gift? In what ways could you begin to “unwrap” this gift in your life? 3. Many times, we believe that the anointing is reserved for the pastor or the “super spiritual” ones, but 1 John 2:20 says that we’ve all been anointed by Jesus. Are you living your life with an awareness of this anointing? Have you allowed the anointing to bring about transformation in your life? What are some things in your life that could be distracting you from the awareness of the anointing? Other Bible Verses Mentioned: 1 Corinthians 2:9-3:3 csb John 14:16-21 csb Acts 1:4-8 nlt

Set the Captives Free

September 3, 2023 • Anthony Longoria • John 8:31, Galatians 5:13, Galatians 5:1, 2 Timothy 3:2–5, Luke 4:16–18

Jesus came to set the captives free - so why do so many still walk in bondage? Dive in with us as we explore this topic with Pastor Anthony Longoria. Discussion Questions: 1. What does freedom mean to you? In what ways are you already experiencing the freedom that Jesus came to bring you? 2. We have been freed from the penalty of sin, but still live in the presence of sin. Has there been a time in your life where you struggled to understand the difference between the two? How did that cause you to view God, and your walk with Him? 3. Is there an area of your life that you experiencing bondage as a result of a refusal to walk in the holiness we are called to as Christians? Open up to your group, and receive prayer to begin walking in freedom in this area.
