Sermon from Bright Star & St. James (I AM NOT REGULAR) emphasizing Christian identity (chosen, royal priesthood), the cost and purpose of the anointing, consecration and surrender, practical calls to repentance/salvation, corporate prayer and outreach (tabernacle project, Greater Bronzeville initiatives, PATS), and invitations to give, join, and engage in weekly prayer calls.

“We overcome by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of our testimony.”
A sermon using David's experience under Saul (and a Michael Jordan/Chicago Bulls analogy) to teach that believers can 'succeed while bleeding'—thrive in God-given purpose despite opposition—by relying on the Spirit, maintaining a faithful 'yes' posture of service, and drawing strength from present and past successes. It closes with a gospel invitation and practical calls to prayer, Scripture, and humble service.
