Session 03: Spiritual Gifts, Part 1

Ever since the time Doug Small shared this simple message from Genesis 18 with our staff in Oak Brook, it has been a favorite, a kind of benchmark for beginning to begin to put in words the spirit of a personal prayer life. Praying is so much more than asking and acquiring answers.

In Matthew 5, 6, and 7, Christ preached the greatest oration on earth, the Sermon on the Mount. In it, He said that Christians are like salt to the earth. Salt burns, and cleanses, and preserves. Likewise, when the body of Christ is holy, God puts those around us under deep conviction.

In this insightful message discover how to identify and tear down even the most well-disguised stronghold by tracing it to the lie on which it is based. Many times we may feel there is something wrong and yet not be able to discern the cause. Where is the enemy? How did he gain his foothold?

Without application doctrines can become mere philosophies, but without doctrine applications often becomes purposeless. From his unique standpoint as an IBLP alumnus and a pastor, Joe Norvell tries to bring clarity to the way doctrines and principles work together.
