How do I transform my Bible reading from duty to delight?We know we should read the Bible, but many of us struggle to do it consistently. Or we do read it, but it feels dry and lifeless. Yet, we know the word of God brings life, so how can we change our stale reading habits into a buffet in his presence? Join Emily Given and David Burr as they talk about how to find life and fulfillment in our Bible reading.

Pastor Kevin Eshleman reminds us why we read the Bible.

Why is relationship with the Holy Spirit so important to the Christian life?So many Christians try to live a good life on their own strength, but God sent his Spirit so that we wouldn't have to. God doesn't invite us into a life of sin management, but of transformation from the inside out. And the Holy Spirit is an essential part of that. Join Dan Gulnac and Barry Wissler as they discuss why the Holy Spirit is the answer to your problem.

Barry Wissler shares on the power of receive through the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

How can I step into greater boldness in my Christian life?The Holy Spirit comes to us not just as a comforter and teacher, but also as one who emboldens and empowers us. Many of us want to live with boldness and radical obedience to the Lord, yet we struggle with fear of what others will think--or what God might ask of us. Yet Holy Spirit-led boldness helps us step into our calling. Join Matt Swords and Oliver Denlinger as they discuss how the Holy Spirit empowers us into greater boldness in our walk with Christ and the joy we experience when we say yes to him.

Pastor Oliver Denlinger teaches on the baptism of the Holy Spirit as an essential part of the gospel.

What impact does confession have on my life?The Bible tells us to confess our sins to God and to one another in order to receive forgiveness, healing, cleansing, and wholeness. Yet, confession feels hard. Many of us have been hurt and condemned when we confessed. This misrepresents God's heart. He invites us to confess our sins because he knows that what we've done is not who we are, and he loves us enough to set us free. How would your life change if you started to agree with God's truth over your life? Join Heidi Zimmerman and Cheryl Pfautz as they discuss the power of confession to genuinely change our lives.

Pastor Kevin Eshleman teaches on the power of confession to unlock healing and breakthrough in our lives.

After receiving deliverance, how do I steward that freedom every day?When God heals our hearts and delivers us from oppression, he gives beauty in places of ashes, joy in place of mourning, righteousness in place of sin. He makes us mighty so we can advance his kingdom. Part of stepping into that call is learning to steward our freedom every day. Join Matt Swords and Kevin Eshleman as they discuss the daily practices that help us live in the freedom Jesus purchased for us.

Guest speaker Jake Kail teaches us that trauma can open us up to demonic oppression, but Jesus can set us free.
