Voice 2014 – A Generational Perspective

This year four young people have been listening to God for three months on behalf of the Community to prayerfully consider these four questions:

  1. What is God saying to and about the world?
  2. What is God saying to and about our nation?
  3. What is God saying to and about the churches?
  4. What is God saying to and about the Maranatha Community?

After a period of 3 months, they met together on 8th March 2014 at The Ark to share with the Community what they believe God is saying. The notes from that time of sharing are available here.

Summary word – “Our generation needs to be equipped to use the Sword of the Spirit”.
