Normal people today are stressed, overwhelmed and exhausted, living paycheck-to-paycheck, bouncing from one relationship to the next; with little if any time for God. Jesus invited people into a new normal, a weird way of thinking and living that really works on a practical level.
Mike wraps up 2011 by "going under the hood" and reviewing what we learned this past year.
When God called Moses to lay his staff down, Moses struggled to let go of it. God told Moses to “throw it down” and Moses held on to the staff for dear life. So many people do the same thing with addictions. They use them as a crutch to perpetuate fear based decisions instead of letting go and trusting God to fight for them.
