A few years back, Pastor Steven Hlatky and I grieved that there wasn’t more in the Free Methodist Church to educate people on spiritual gifts. And then we realized something: we could make our own event! Reveal was born a year later in 2020 before having to go on hiatus due to covid. But now it’s back! This year our Holy Spirit themes revolve around that of evangelism, deliverance, and music as we look to bring our city into fuller worship. Evangelism means more worshippers. Deliverance means the ability to worship more fully. And music creates the space for God to be enthroned in our worship as we encounter his tangible presence. Join us on October 15th, 2022!
EVANGELISM TRACK
There are many strategic ways to evangelize, but at the heart of all evangelism is the Holy Spirit. Learn how to lean into spiritual gifts to evangelize in the same ways that Jesus and the early church did.
DELIVERANCE TRACK
Due to the weird nature of demons, deliverance ministry is often avoided by many. But deliverance done right is more or less a holistic form of counseling that allows the Holy Spirit to heal old wounds and treat addictions. Learn how to help others get free and stay free.
MUSIC TRACK
There are many ways to lead worship, but we like to use music to take others into the presence of God. In this track you’ll learn tips and tricks to help you cooperate with the Holy Spirit while playing music.
