Keys to Overflow

This Sermon was given at Casey

Session Focus
In this session, we’ll explore how we can live in overflow by understanding our identity in Christ, recognizing the Kingdom within us, and releasing it through love. 
The key to walking in power, love, and joy is knowing who we are and what we carry.

1. Jesus’ Mountain Experience and the Power of Faith
(Matthew 17:1-8, 14-20)

After spending time on the mountain with the Father, Jesus returned to find His disciples unable to heal a boy. He mentioned their faith was too small.

“faith the size of a mustard seed”?
