Believing God for Greater Things

Fall 2013


The theme of the 55th General Council is Believe. In line with that theme, we asked the Executive Leadership Team of the Assemblies of God to share with you what they are believing God for. We asked them to share these things because they lead our Fellowship. But we also want their essays to spark a fire of faith in your own heart. It is not enough to follow the faith-filled dreams of your leaders. You must have faith in God or your life, your home, and your ministry. The founders of the Assemblies of God were audacious people. We need to be audacious people in our own generation. So, what are you believing God for?
