God Can Use Anyone and Everyone Do you ever feel that you need to be qualified to talk about your faith? Or that God only uses “special” people who can preach and lead ministries? Or that even if you did step up and do something bold for God … that it wouldn’t really matter much in the end? When you look at the stories of the men and women in the early church, most were not people we would consider “qualified” for the tasks that God set before them. Many were not trained in religious matters or even educated. Few of them had the skills to persuade people through eloquent speech. Certainly, none of them considered they were accomplishing extraordinary things for God that extend to today. But all had one thing in common. They stepped out in faith and took action when they felt the leading of the Holy Spirit. In this audio Bible study, bestselling author and pastor Jim Cymbala draws on examples of these ordinary people—men and women such as Ananias, Philip, and the 120 who waited in the Upper Room—along with modern-day testimonies to show how God can use anyone and everyone who follows his guidance. As you go through this study, you will learn how to obey the Spirit’s directions and extend the kingdom through sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Sessions and run times: • God Uses Ordinary People (19:00) • Power from Heaven (19:30) • The Gift of Encouragement (21:00) • Keep on Being Filled (18:30) • The Holy Spirit Still Speaks (20:00) The Audio Bible Studies series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook’s direct narration of a book’s text, this audio Bible study includes high-quality, live audio sessions from the author that cover important Bible-based topics. These sessions will reflect the ambiance of the unique recording locations, immersing the listener into the teaching. While not required for the audio experience, these studies are designed to partner with the coordinating study guide, sold separately. In this five-session audio Bible study, Jim Cymbala guides participants through the apostle Paul’s words to the Ephesian elders in Acts 20, revealing how to “fan the flame” of revival in the church.
