43 And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles.

44 And all who believed were together and had all things in common.

45 And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need.

46 And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts,

47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.

An Attitude of Gratitude Nov 24, 2021

Show notes

Happy Thanksgiving!
Tune in as this sermonic episode will inspire you to have an Attitude of Gratitude!

Text Luke 17:11-19 Jesus Heals 10 Lepers
3 Action points from the sermon:

Be interruptible: God wants to use you to bring Him glory, but you must be interruptible and open to all that God wants to do in & through you
Be Loud for Jesus: In your life, conversations, spheres of influence (work\school, etc) social media, point others to Christ.
Be Grateful: There may be a lot to complain about, but there is a lot to be grateful for as well…The fact that you still have breath in your body means that God isn’t done with you yet and that my friend is more than enough to be grateful

The Do's & Don'ts of Biblical Fasting Nov 03, 2021

Fasting is a powerful spiritual discipline taught and modeled by Jesus. Fasting is also one of the more neglected spiritual disciplines honestly. Tune in as the host, Paul Calcote, discusses the Do's & Don'ts fasting and answers the following questions: How long to fast? Types of fast? Why should we fast? When to fast?
Quotes from this episode

"Fasting means going without food for spiritual purposes"
"When we fast, we are expressing and demonstrating our obedience, worship, and love to God"
"Fasting makes us more sensitive to the voice and timing of the Holy Spirit"

Scripture

1 Tim 4:7 Discipline yourself for the purpose of Godliness
Matthew 6:16-18 “And when you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 17 But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, 18 that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
