Elisha took the mantle from his mentor, Elijah to carry on the good work that Elijah had committed to for a lifetime. Elisha’s faith was tested during this time of transition, tests that we all experience from time to time that push us to the limits of our faith. When we have a test of our faith, we also have a decision to make…to take up the mantel of leadership left to us or to let it go and leave it behind.

Catalyst – Lean into Your Passion
It was the passion of Nehemiah that led him to restore the walls and doors of Jerusalem and provide safety for his people. But how can you know what your passion is?
Catalyst – Unity in Diversity
One of the greatest strengths of the church is that we can be unified in our diversity of backgrounds, skills, socio-economic status, gender, ethnicity and on and on the list goes. Jesus, the head of the body, bring equality to the variety of parts that make up the body. Our job is to put Jesus…

Focused – King Herod
There’s a villain in every story but what if we looked inwardly and discovered that the villain is actually within us? Join Reggie Byrd as he illustrates how there is a Herod within all of us that seeks to fulfill their own power, position and pride unless we turn ourselves over to Jesus.
Focused – Simeon and Anna
Simeon and Anna were elderly people patiently waiting on the birth of the Messiah…but as they aged could they help but wonder if they were past their prime and had maybe missed their opportunity to do what they thought they were supposed to do?
Focused – Zechariah and Elizabeth

Fueled – Power Progressed
Each person is on their own journey of progressing in the likeness of Jesus. We all take different paths to get there but the Holy Spirit guides us as we need to be guided. For the Apostle Paul, who began his Acts narrative as Saul, there was the bright light of Jesus transforming him. But…
Fueled – Power Prescribed
The first conflict recorded in the early church was over a division of ethnicity, but the conflict was resolved through a division of labor.
