    Contributed by Ron Auch Jr on Jun 1, 2025
     | 58 views

    Change is never easy. But in the Kingdom of God, change is often the doorway to growth. The Church has always been called to adapt—not by compromising truth, but by shedding old forms that no longer serve the mission.

    I. It Pays to be Right with God! (28-30). II. It’s okay to be Real with the Lord (34). III. Personal Surrender Precedes the Miraculous! (37-38).We will see that when we line our lives up with God’s plan, nothing can stop what He wants to do in and through us.

    A huge metal structure was built in 1889 for an international exposition.
