Sermon Responses:
So what can you do if you
are experiencing:
“The D.R.I.F.T.”
1. Confession—Confess to
Jesus that you have
pursued lesser and false
gods and that you need
him.
2. Community—Confess to
your nearest brother and
sister in Christ, and
immerse yourself in
God’s grace.
1. Contribute—Minister to
someone who is
experiencing “The
D.R.I.F.T.” Let them
know that you have been
there and it’s not worth it
and there is deliverance.
“But thanks be to God, who
gives us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ”.
1 Cor. 15:57 (ESV)
