EIGHT SUNDAY CHURCH SERVICES

We at G4 Mission have a passion to see mere seat-warmers in the local church be transformed into soldiers in the Kingdom of God. So, when an opportunity is given for us to share God’s Word in a local church, we preach keeping that in mind. Between November 2012 to Feb 2013, Duke preached in the Sunday Church service of eight different churches, after a warm invitation by the senior pastors of those churches. Here is a list of those churches: the Capstone AG Church (Hitec City – led by Rev. Chaitanya Gera), the Good Shepherd CNI Church (Mumbai – led by Rev. P. Abraham), the History Maker International Church (Navi Mumbai – led by Rev. Anil Alexander), the Abundant Life AG Church (Chennai – led by Rev. Senthil), the New Creation AG Church (Chennai – led by Rev. Jegil), the Life Fellowship (Trivandrum – led by Rev. Sam Varghese), the Victory Church (New Delhi – led by Dr. Y. D. Jeyaseelan) and Trichy City AG Church (Trichy – led by Rev. Dr. Norman Bhasker). Duke’s messages of encouragement and challenge that brought about comfort and conviction in these churches among the believers were titled as follows: You Can Burn Me, But I Will Not Stop Burning (Witnessing) for Jesus! (Revelation 11 study), Bible Animals That Preach!, Bible Questions That Challenge, Lessons From Christmas Characters (preached twice), Have You Grown To Be This Jeroboam?, They Were Killed By God – But Why?, and Soldier or Spectator (Uriah Character Study). Duke included an illustration of a British soldier who was a mere spectator to the atrocities happening around him, narrated in the book pictured in this page (post), in one of these sermons. A senior church leader told Duke after one of these sermons, “This is the first time I am hearing someone preach an entire message from the life of this particular Bible character you preached from! We were blessed!” Some of these messages have already been uploaded onto Duke’s Youtube channel: www.Youtube.com/visitduke.
