God's Resolutions

Video Illustration

Produced by Big Pie Publishing

Instead of focusing on human willpower for New Year resolutions, this video brings the focus back to God and his commitment to us. It's a great theme for a January sermon series and can even be shown later in the year when New Year's resolutions are long forgotten but God is still keeping his promises. Be sure to check out God's Resolutions 2 which follows the same theme and includes additional promises.
