“What if your greatest breakthrough is on the other side of your biggest limitation? In “It’s Time to Stretch,” we’ll see how Jesus called a man with a withered hand to step beyond his comfort zone and into healing by faith. Don’t hold back—God is ready to stretch you into new possibilities!” - Pastor Alfonzo Greene III
