Summary
How does the Word of God apply to our lives today? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson walks through passages in Acts and Ephesians, discussing the early church in Ephesus and how it parallels today's Church. To be an effective Christ-follower, we need to intentionally grow in our faith so we can discover new freedom, power, and restoration through Jesus. If we ask, the Holy Spirit will reveal what's hindering our faith, including bitterness and unforgiveness. Pastor Allen offers practical steps we can take to nurture our growth, along with a series of powerful prayers that can help set us free.

| 1:07.0 | I really this presentation began for me with a I wanted to share with take a few |
