Partaking in the Nature of God—Jesus Feed 5000 Part 5 of The Book of Jesus, Chapter 4 — Not Just a Carpenter: The Ministry of Jesus What happened on that day, on that hillside, was that people were called in to be partakers of the nature of God—to produce a sacrifice, an offering, that was then multiplied to become more than enough.

Healer and Ruler
Healer and Ruler Part 4 of The Book of Jesus, Chapter 4 — Not Just a Carpenter: The Ministry of Jesus Why would we sacrifice everything to a holy God? Because he is holy.

The only answer we have is Jesus Christ. And the power we have as a person is not just the power of a Facebook post; it’s a life of influence in prayer.
