Old Testament heroes are best known for their most celebrated moments:
Moses dividing the Red Sea; David slaying Goliath; Gideon routing an
insurmountable army; Joshua marching around the defiant walls of
Jericho.
And Elijah—calling down fire on Mount Carmel.
Blinded by the remarkable narratives of our biblical heroes, we can
forget they each had a backstory—months and years of development, even
difficulty, which fortified their spiritual muscle and prepared them
for the tasks that made their lives unforgettable.
Every serious believer longs to summon up the kind of boldness and
faith that can stand firm on Mount Carmel and pray down heaven into
impossible situations. Yet few are willing to go through the process
required to get them there. Strength of faith, character, and boldness
can only be shaped in the hidden fires of silence, sameness, solitude,
and adversity. Those who patiently wait on God in the darkness emerge
with their holy loyalty cemented, their courage emblazoned, and their
confident belief in Him set afire.
Join Priscilla Shirer on this 7-session journey through the life and
times of the prophet Elijah to discover how the fire on Mount Carmel
was forged in the valley of famine. And how the emboldened, fiery faith
you desire is being fashioned by God in your life right now.
