Your faith will determine your experience of the supernatural.

But Dr. Tony Evans says a lack of faith carries consequences of its own.

Unbelief is so powerful it'll stop God's work in your life.

This is the alternative broadcast featuring the timeless biblical teachings from the archives of Dr. Tony Evans.

We've all heard stories about the powerful things faith can accomplish. But today, Dr. Evans explains

why unbelief can be powerful too in some pretty costly ways. Let's join him in Matthew

Chapter 17 as he begins. All of us have traveled

across bridges. When we travel across a bridge, it typically means that two bodies of land

have been separated by a challenge.

There's either a waterway, a lake, or a river that has to be crossed,

that we can't drive across, so they construct a bridge.

Or perhaps there's one mountain range to another range,

one large hill to another hill separated by a valley, a low spot.

You can't drive across or it's too big, so they construct a bridge.

This bridge is designed to take you from where you are to where you are trying to go.

The bridge that God has constructed for you to move from the natural to the supernatural

is the bridge called faith.

It is the only bridge that he has constructed.

So if you don't use that bridge, you don't cross over. What many of us need,

either in our lives or in the lives of folk we know, demands the supernatural. And the reason

you know it demands the supernatural is the natural hadn't fixed it. The natural hadn't changed it, reversed it, tweaked it.

It hadn't done anything substantial with it.
