When someone restores an automobile, a building, a piece of artwork or furniture, they bring it back into its former or original state. However, when Jesus restores you, your condition or situation, He restores better than before. In this teaching, you will see how Jesus revealed His restoring nature in His restoration of the Apostle Peter into ministry after he denied Christ and returned to his previous occupation of fishing.  

Jesus is alive! In this message from His resurrection day, we unpack several Old Testament types and shadows that point Jesus, the Messiah. Hidden within this story are glimpses of Jesus as the Ark of the Covenant, the last Adam, and the atoning sacrifice. Our hope is that as you listen, you will not only receive a greater revelation of Jesus and His finished work but will fall deeper in love with Him.

When the apostles asked Jesus to increase their faith, He didn’t actually teach them how to do that. Instead, He told them that if they had faith as a mustard seed, nothing would be impossible for them. In reality, believing for and seeing the impossible is not a matter of producing more faith, but eliminating the unbelief.

From the parable of the talents in Matthew 25, this message will show how your capacity for more is increased through faithfulness. Faith asks the question, "Can you trust God?" However, faithfulness asks, "Can God trust you?" Regardless of the amount that you are initially entrusted with, as you steward well what you have been given, your personal capacity will grow as well.
