Acts 9:19-31; 11:22-26; 22:17-21
II Corinthians 1:16; 3:4-6; 11:30-33
Galatians 1:1-17

Let's bow for prayer together as we begin. Father,
we thank you for the ministry of music that stirs
us and lifts us up. But we know that to be
inspired is not enough, that we must follow

are going to find together some basic principles
that God gives us about life. In fact, the most

move around tonight, in Acts, in Corinthians, and
Galatians; so we're gonna be right in that

to another.

If you did not bring your Bible with you, there are
Bibles in the pew. They're black in color, you'll
see them there, if you'll get one of those Bibles,
it would help you. It's like following along,
reading and hearing has a way of just impounding ...
