We had a good night at the Harrisburg Discipleship Center (HDC) last night. Thanks to Chris for allowing us to come and share with you all. Thanks as well to Rachel for initiating our visit. We met at Loren & Doreen's house which was great and even better they had COFFEE, Starbucks too! (You guys rock, not just because of the coffee but that defiantly helps.)
We were impressed by the "swording" ability of the HDC staff - who can find the verse first? Jen started off by talking about what Jesus said in Luke 11 - when he encouraged the disciples to ask for the Holy Spirit and be confidant that God will answer. She encouraged us to resist unbelief and to give God glory at every opportunity.
Sean shared some thoughts from the life of Jesus. Not "What would Jesus do?" but "What DID Jesus do?" To answer that question we took a look at several verses where Jesus sent out His disciples and gave them the power and the authority to do the very things that He was doing. Sean challenged the group about expecting God to do powerful things when we pray. We also talked about being aware of that "inner voice" the voice of Gods Spirit within us. Just like the many radio and TV waves that surround us but we can not see or hear them so God's Spirit is constantly speaking to us as we become more aware.
We ended the night by praying for anyone who wanted prayer. We started off praying for the long term staff, then got to pray for the K Team summer staff also. It was encouraging to hear how many people experienced God speaking specific and meaningful words to them during this prayer time. We even witnessed an instant physical healing of a shoulder injury! One thing that was really cool was to see the staff praying for each other and being used of God powerfully.
We had a great time with you guys and hope to see you all again soon!
