Running on Empty - Elijah: Wk 1

Running on Empty - Elijah: Wk 1

July 20, 2025 · 58 min

What if your calling didn’t depend on your résumé but your obedience? In a time of political chaos and spiritual darkness, Elijah enters the biblical narrative from the hills of Tishbe with no credentials, no intro, and no pedigree—but full of the power of God.

In this first message from our new series, Pastor Joby walks us through the moment Elijah enters the biblical story and reminds us: God often chooses the overlooked and underqualified to speak His Word and change the world.

If you've ever wondered whether God could use someone like you, Elijah's story is just the beginning.
