What if Jesus intended church to be a community of loving believers, instead of a series of weekly lectures? What if instead of listening to a man’s sermonic God talks, church was originally designed by Jesus for you to listen while the living God talks to you personally?
When the word talks is a noun, God talks are sermons. However, when the word talks is a verb, God talks means that He is speaking to you. Are you listening?
When a church service is built around listening to a man talk about God, people learn theological information. However, when a church meeting is built around listening to God talk, people are supernaturally transformed. Hearing God’s voice is life changing!
At The Salvation Army Berry Street in Nashville, Tennessee, our goal is to hear God talk to us. So we have set aside traditional sermons. Instead of preaching, after praise and worship, we encourage people to listen to God and then to openly share what He tells them. The results are absolutely incredible. Come and see for yourself: Sunday mornings at 10:45, 225 Berry Street, 37207.
