| "The Syro-Phoenician Woman" Rev. Christine A. Gibson Length: 60 Minutes Live Stream What a joy this message is! What an encouragement! What a lesson in faith. Rev. Christine A. Gibson draws from the example of the Syro-Phonecian woman, teaching on the components of great faith. Speaking of how the disciples tried to drive the woman away from Jesus, Sister Gibson states: "You know, many a person has cast away his or her faith because of disciples? If you are going to trust God to develop a great faith in you, you'll have to get rid of the opinions of the disciples. You have to overcome people's opinions!" Speaking of the Syro-Phonecian woman Sister Gibson notes, "She had something in her that held her steady under a tremendous, crucial test. She had a great faith." Then from this platform of scriptural example, Sister Gibson begins to tell the story of how she pioneered Zion Bible College by beginning with nothing more than "a house that hadn't seen paint in years" and "a tumble-down barn," walking around the area by faith and shouting "Beautiful! Beautiful! [In accordance with God's word that tells us to call those things that be not as though they were] I call you BEAUTIFUL!" She shouts, "God is looking for a people who will DARE to believe Him!" If you will listen to this message by Sister Gibson, a woman of great faith herself, you will learn the components necessary for great faith. Message ends with Sister Gibson praying for the people. |
