3.3.24 - Come Alive - Strength in Vulnerability and Weakness - Pastor Liz Powell - 2 Corinthians 12

In this message we learn that when we allow our lives to be lead by vulnerability and weakness, we are able to embrace the power of God. 
Series Description:
It’s not uncommon to let the values of our culture define what it means to be a successful follower of Jesus. But busying ourselves with the work of God and endless striving for goodness doesn’t mean fulfillment. So how does Jesus define success?
What if we shifted our mindset from following the world’s idea of success to Jesus’ teachings of how we are meant to come alive with him? Jesus invites us to thrive by abiding with him and simply enjoying the presence of God throughout our lives. It’s from his presence that all good things flow.
This series is based on the book Emotionally Healthy Discipleship by Peter Scazzaro.
