Unlock Your Gifts | Pastor Brandon Beals | Venture Church

How do we position ourselves to receive more of the Holy Spirit?

In Part 3 of our More series, Pastor Brandon teaches from 1 Corinthians 12 and unpacks two key areas that often keep people from experiencing everything God has for them. From understanding biblical generosity to overcoming misconceptions about spiritual gifts, this message challenges us to pursue God above experiences and to discover the unique gifts He has placed within each of us for the good of the Church.

No matter your background or previous experiences, God has more for you.
