“I am the type that wants to meditate over the passage throughout the week. As I read over the passage and pray through it and ask the Lord to reveal what he wants to reveal. It is his Word. I don’t want to impute what I want to say. I don’t even bring my own stories to it. I let the text do all the work. Because the themes and the points of the message for that Sunday are going to come out of that text and its amazing how the Spirit illuminates your mind and your heart of certain stories that you want to tell or examples of your own personal life. You are a living parable in that way… But ultimately, I am always looking for Jesus because he is the Word in the word. It’s all about him.”
– Anthony Mullins, GCI Pastor
