Jesus’ Power Over Distance

Week #3 September 29, 2024 Carlos Ortiz

Trust is a big deal, both in psychology and faith. It all starts when we're babies, shaping how we see the world. But let's talk about Jesus for a sec - there's this cool story where he heals a kid without even being there! It's like, "Distance? What distance?" This shows how God's not limited by our human stuff like time and space. The takeaway? When God makes a promise, you can bank on it. But it's not just about believing - it's about sharing your story too. When you talk about how God's worked in your life, it can really hit home for others. It's like a domino effect of faith. And get this - the U.S. has had these big spiritual revivals about every 50 years. We're due for another one, so maybe sharing our God moments could kick off something huge. It's all about keeping it real, spreading hope, and watching how one person's faith can light up a whole community.

Jesus’ Power Over Time

Week #4 October 6, 2024 Carlos Ortiz

In this powerful message, we explore Jesus' encounter with a man who had been paralyzed for 38 years. Through this miraculous healing, we're reminded that God's invitation to wholeness is always open, even when we've grown comfortable with our dysfunction. Jesus' simple question, "Do you want to get well?" challenges us to examine our own lives and the areas where we need healing - physically, emotionally, spiritually, or relationally. This sermon encourages us to persist in prayer, to let go of excuses, and to embrace the transformative power of Christ's love. It reminds us that true healing goes beyond the physical, touching our eternal souls. As we reflect on this story, we're inspired to not only seek our own healing but also to be agents of hope and healing for others, bringing more of heaven to our world.
