Pastor Mark Driscoll here, welcoming you to the podcast. I've been teaching the Bible for more than 30 years,

and real faith is an extraordinary ministry with a great team. It's not a big team, but they're making a big difference at a big impact. And we'd love you to preferably consider partnering with us, especially with a one-time or ongoing recurring gift.

All the proceeds will help us get Bible teaching out, and our hope, prayer, and goal is next

And is there any way that we can access his power so that we're not overcome, overwhelmed,

overtaken by them, but we can live in the freedom that he has for us?

That's what we're going to deal with today.

We're in the Jesus Miracles sermon series,

and today's question is,
