How God Stirs The Pot

Jonah 1:1-3

November 23, 2021 • Jeff Lyle • Jonah 1:1–3

God sets the universal calendar. God decrees The Who, The What, The When and The Where of all occurrences in His Kingdom. When the Al mighty sets His intentions on a people, He will see His plans through the end. In the ancient Book of Jonah, God marks the wicked people of Nineveh with an evangelistic bullseye. He wants to save them. Because of this, God also marks a Jewish prophet named Jonah, whom He plans to send with His message of repentance. From these two determinations, we learn so much about the merciful heart of God and the rebellious heart of humankind. This is the first of five messages in a mini series of teachings from the incredible life of Jonah. Pay close attention to learn what it looks like when God stirs the pot.

Supernatural Powers of Healings & Miracles

September 17, 2024 • Jeff Lyle • 1 Corinthians 12:7–10

The entire biblical history of the relationship between God and His people contains elements of supernatural works. Visions, miracles, healings, conquests and deliverances from dark powers are all throughout the biblical narrative. God's portion of these miraculous moments is in the supply of power. Our portion is the exercise of faith. The question for many is whether or not we should reasonably expect these same types of occurrences in modern times. This message helps us to understand the dynamics of what can happen when our faith meets God's power. Healings, miracles and unassailable trust are gracious gifts provided to us today.

Words of Wisdom. Knowledge & Faith

September 10, 2024 • Jeff Lyle • 1 Corinthians 12:7–10

Hearing from God is an immeasurable privilege. To walk in such intimacy with the Almighty that you can personally hear His voice - what an amazing occurrence! Yet we are accountable for what we hear, and He sometimes calls us to share it with others. What does it mean to receive and release a word that we receive from God? What abut the faith that allows us to hear the word, believe that it is from God, and to release it in the way He desires? These three gifts of the Spirit are powerful tools to build up the body of Christ and to reveal God’s ways and will to one another.

Introducing Spiritual Gifts

September 3, 2024 • Jeff Lyle

In this latest Truth Shots episode, we are challenged to reconsider our understanding of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. The core teaching comes from 1 Corinthians 12, where Paul emphasizes that spiritual gifts are given to each believer for the common good of the church. We are reminded that these gifts aren't just for a select few or limited to a specific time in history, but are meant for all believers today. Or are they? Many Jesus-loving, Kingdom-advancing Christians emphatically deny that Holy Spirit gifts continue today. This episode encourages us to embrace both the Word of God and the gifts of the Spirit, rather than choosing between them ourselves or forcing others to do so. As we reflect on this, we're invited to examine our own beliefs and ask ourselves: Are we fully embracing all that God has for us through His Spirit?
