Prison Break








Powered by Podbean.com
If you've peeked into the high school trailer you might have seen a prison cell. That's the stage in which we will be delivering our messages from over the next few weeks. Wednesday night we began a new series entitled: Prison Break. You can listen to the opening message by going to the podcast page.


Coming off of "Becoming Legendary for God", our leadership has seen what God is stirring in the hearts of our students (and themselves). God is beginning to unveil how He wants to use us in huge ways. Yet there is a dark side... there are silent sins that can imprison us if we don't deal with them. They not only can imprison us, they also can & will keep us from doing"legendary" things for God's glory!

Over the next few weeks we are going to look at a few places in our life where we may be imprisoned: sexual sin, guilt, bitterness, unforgiveness, and a poor self image. Tonight was an overview of the next few weeks. We ended the night asking our students to identify that which may be imprisoning them and to ask God to speak to them in the weeks ahead. It's my goal that our students and leaders would be used by God in legendary ways - for His glory. In order to do that, we have to be set free from the sin that imprisons us. The only way to do that is to bring it face to face with the truth of God's word. I think someone famous already said that...

"You will know the truth, & the truth
will make you free." - Jesus Christ, John 8:32 (nas)

someone said i did not think that our wednesday night service could be topped after Legendary, but I think it will be with Prison Break.

Thanks anonymous... I'm pretty excited about it too. All we can do is ask God to do with this series what he did with "legendary" & set us free to be legendary for Him.
