Why Most Christians Lack Power (and How to Grow in It) | Darren Rouanzoin

Many followers of Jesus live with a faith that feels powerless. We settle for behavior management, curated church experiences, and good ideas rather than stepping into the life Jesus promised. But the book of Acts tells a different story. Ordinary men and women were filled with the Holy Spirit and became powerful witnesses of the risen Jesus.

In this message, Pastor Darren unpacks Acts 1:8 and teaches on what it means to receive and grow in the power of the Holy Spirit. Power is not about hype or performance. It is the Spirit’s presence enabling us to live transformed lives, proclaim the gospel, heal the sick, and partner with God’s mission in the world.

If you’ve ever wondered why your faith feels empty or how to experience more of God’s presence and power, this teaching will give you a framework for stepping into it.
