He Shall Be Great

Pastor Jack had prepared to teach on “He shall be great” from Luke 1:32 as part of a series on greatness in God’s promises, but felt a clear prompting from the Holy Spirit the night before to change direction. Instead of teaching, he leads the congregation to make room for Jesus to “show himself great” through three different corporate prayer experiences-praying for physical healing through laying on of hands, sharing needs in small circles, and interceding for three specific members facing serious health challenges. The service concludes with Pastor Jack reading “Telling the Story of Christmas,” a child-friendly narrative he wrote to explain the meaning of Christmas from creation through Christ’s birth.
