"There is real power is Jesus Christ. He is not weak. He is not impotent. He is not unresponsive. He is not an incompetent force. He is a God that is all powerful, revolutionary, life changing, able to effect circumstances and situations. One of the greatest challenges in our society is that the church has been misdefined and described as a weak, incompetent, group of people with irrelevant and philosophical ideas. As long as we stay in our little church buildings, clap our hands, sing, and don't make any waves or noise about the power, then everything will be ok. We need to send a signal that our God is not dead. He is Alive. When people gather in the name of Jesus there is Power: healings, miracles, freedom, solutions, and deliverances happen." Join Pastor Dwayne as he takes us to Mark and shows the faith of these 4 men and the power of the Word of Jesus.

Sometimes when we think of revival, we think of harvesting souls, baptizing people, and people being filled with the Holy Spirit. Revival is more than that. It is seeing something come back to life. It is seeing people renewing their lives to God, renewing their obedience to Him. It starts in the pulpit and with the people already in the pews. Join Pastor Dwayne as he shows us, through the children of Israel's expeirence when they returned from Babylon what revival can look like for us.
