    As we follow where God leads us, we encounter trials and struggles, but that's part of the plan! God uses those trials to shape and mold us into the people He desires for us to become… but most importantly, so His glory can be revealed to the world!

    For the message this morning, we’re going to go back to the book of Exodus... and we’re going to look at a real historical event that will be very familiar to most of you… The crossing of the Red Sea. Since this story IS very familiar to us already, we must be careful not to just read through it ...read more
