Wed, 26 Mar 2025 14:34:55 +0000 More: Because What We Have Is Not Enough http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/66657 From the story of Elijah, we learn that revival doesn’t just happen. Leaders have to call for revival. People have to cry out to God for revival. This is why we’re inviting you to join us in person for a very intentional journey: Sunday–Sabbath, March 2–8, at 7 p.m. Just seven nights at 7 p.m. for 70 minutes with speaker Don MacLafferty, founder/director of In Discipleship. Each evening, Pastor Don will walk us through portions of the story of the prophet Elijah. Through presentations, demonstrations and discussions we will learn how we too can experience revival and discipleship in our own lives and how we can be used by God to bring revival and discipleship to our homes and communities. Sunday: "Stand Before God" Monday: "Live God’s Word" Tuesday: "Find Heart Healing" Wednesday: "Come and Worship" Thursday: "Cry for Fire" Friday: Mentor "Your Elisha" Sabbath Morning: "Be an Elijah" Sabbath Evening: "What’s Next?" <a href="https://www.pmchurch.org/events/more-because-what-we-have-is-not-enough" target="_blank">https://www.pmchurch.org/events/more-because-what-we-have-is-not-enough</a> Sun, 16 Feb 2025 19:00:00 +0000
