    Explore the themes of trouble, hope, joy, and freedom in the context of Job's suffering, emphasizing that while anxiety and suffering are inevitable, we have the choice not to be imprisoned by them through faith in God.

    Good morning, church family! There's a quote by Max Lucado, that I want to share with you this morning. He once said, "The presence of anxiety is unavoidable, but the prison of anxiety is optional." That, my friends, is where we find ourselves today in the book of Job, chapter 3, verses 17-20.

    "Storms Don't Last Always!"

    We will encounter storms in our lives, and we can allow these storms to make us bitter, or help us to be better Christians. It is how we react to the trials in our lives, not the storms, itself that is most important.

    Mark 4:35-41. “Storms Don’t Last Always.” Dr. Marie Mason Illustration: A young woman, whom I will call Patty, told me a little about her life, and listening to her, I had a combination of emotions. As a parent, (1) hurt, because, as a child, she went through so much, (2) exhilarated, because ...read more

    Introduction: The word trouble is often looked upon with a dark color. Trouble and trials are two of a kind. Webster’s dictionary defines trouble as a condition of distress, anxiety, or danger.

    The Holy Spirit is given to all who love Jesus Christ, to empower us for his work, to teach us all things, and to give us a real and lasting peace in the knowledge that Jesus has overcome the world.

    It seems to me that there are 2 issues that Christians face today that Jesus addresses here in this passage. The first is the question as to how we’re rating as a Christian. That is are we good enough for God to be happy with us? Are we good enough that God would listen to our prayers? How ...read more

    Last week I shared Prov. 12:25, "An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up." As I focused on the later part of the verse last week, today I want to focus on the beginning part of the verse. So, let's look at the subject of anxiety.

    ANXIETY IS A DOWNER INTRODUCTION: Last week I shared Prov. 12:25, "An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up." in regards to shining our light. Light warms and so therefore a kind word warms a person's heart. As I focused on the later part of the verse last week, today I ...read more

    The importance of acknowledging and confessing our sins rather than concealing them and the transformative power of God's forgiveness.

    Good morning, beloved! Today, we're going to dive deep into a topic that touches all of us - sin.
