A businessman says, “I am so far in a financial hole I can never dig myself out.” A single mother of three works a full time job and cleans houses on the side. She says, “There’s just too much. I don’t have any help; I can’t raise these kids.” A widow about to lose her sons to a debtor was desperate for the prophet's help. Her last possession was a jar of olive oil. Elisha told her to collect as many jars as she could, then God did more than she could imagine. When you find yourself on “empty”, you can experience God’s ridiculous provision when you have ridiculous faith.

What's interesting about Elisha is he was very ordinary. He wasn't the son of a priest, he wasn't a monk, and he wasn't like some sort of outward spiritual giant. He was an ordinary guy who was living at home with his parents, working on a farm when God called him to do something incredible. To answer God’s call, Elisha had to do something very ridiculous. In this message we will discover what we have to do to answer God’s call when it comes.

Sometimes we face a situation or a circumstance, and we try to balance it out. But what do you do when you’ve got 5000 people and they all need to be fed. You think I’ll throw in everything I’ve got – five loaves and two fish – but what is that going to do to the scales? What do you do in a circumstance when you throw in everything you’ve got and it just won’t move? In this lesson Bobby shows us how to balance the scales in our favor.

Instead of a resolution, why not start a New Year’s Revolution? A revolution is defined in many ways, but one definition is “a sudden, complete, or marked change in something”. Isn’t that what we’re really looking for as we start a new year? Join us on New Year’s Day for a “revolutionary” message for starting 2017.

Despite our most fervent prayers, there are times when God doesn't show up the way we want him to. The cancer isn't cured. The company fails. The foreclosure goes through. In this message, Bobby tells us what to look for when it feels like God is ignoring our cries for help.

For 400 years, God did not speak to the Jewish people. The promise of a coming Messiah at the end of the Old Testament era was beginning to get lost in the stunning silence. And generation after generation of people died and there was no fulfillment of that promise. They prayed and they waited and they prayed and they waited. Some remained faithful while many of the Jews peeled off into other things and abandoned their faith because they concluded it must be a myth or a fairy tale. But there were some who, in spite of the absence of God’s voice, held on to the promise, even after 400 years of “Silent Nights”.
