    based on 3 ratings
     | 74 views

    This sermon urges us to quiet life’s noise, discern truth from deception, and pursue purity and integrity in our homes and hearts through God’s guidance.

    If you’ve ever stood in a room where a dozen radios are on at once, you know the feeling of fatigue that follows. Voices everywhere. Opinions everywhere. Promises that sound pleasant but leave you empty. Maybe your week has felt that way. Maybe your home has heard more noise than nourishment, more ...read more

    Some mornings the alarm sounds like yesterday.

A reset that clears the fog and brings your ...read more

    based on 43 ratings
     | 28,758 views

    When we find hate in our heart, it is simply a sign that we are going to need to forgive. Forgiveness doesn't make the other person right, it sets you free. For a believer , forgiveness is not simply the wisest choice, O Beloved, it is our only choice.
