INTRODUCTION

Have you ever envisioned being part of something greater than yourself—a movement that begins with one individual and reaches thousands? In this collection of talks, we’ll explore how God’s multiplication principle extends beyond mere numerical growth into a movement that impacts every facet of our lives and community. Just as a single seed can yield a harvest that nourishes an entire village, our life holds the potential to create ripple effects that can transform the people and communities around us.

“But the word of God grew and multiplied.” —Acts 12:24 (KJV)

Leading up to Super Vision Weekend, we will explore how we can transform our culture from one of addition to multiplication through God’s Word. Together, we will be taking steps to nurture a vibrant multiplication movement. This collection will focus on:

“And my God will supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” —Philippians 4:19

B. God’s Promise of Our

“Don’t store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves don’t break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” —Matthew 6:19-21

  1. your current giving of the 4 T’s (time, talent, treasures, and tongue).

  3. to regular, systematic giving through your local church.

  4. God’s faithfulness to multiply your offering for His glory.
