GOD’S POWER TO CHANGE ME

August 5th - 6th, 2023 - Pastor Ryan Shook

The Way to Real Change

• Not “God, then me.”
• Not “God, not me.”
• But “God through me.”

Real change isn’t behavior modification.

Real change is spiritual transformation.

The same grace that saves you is also the grace that changes you.

• Your spiritual why is God’s purpose for you.
• Your spiritual how is God’s power through you.

Scriptures:Romans 7:14-15, 2 Corinthians 12:9, Romans 7:24-25, 1 Corinthians 15:9-10, Zechariah 4:6
