Theme For End Of The Year Program PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 3, 2025

No matter how weary or uncertain we feel at year’s end, Christ’s presence and strength sustain us and give hope for every day ahead.

Some of us count the days on the calendar with a sigh. Others count with a smile. Many of us do both. The year has been a quilt of bright patches and frayed threads—birthdays and funerals, milestones and setbacks, answered prayers and unanswered questions. The days have left their marks.

The Promise Is Received By Faith PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 14, 2025

God’s promises are guaranteed by grace, not our strength; faith trusts and obeys even when we doubt, because grace secures what God has spoken.

Some days faith feels like a full sail on a steady sea. Other days it feels like a flickering candle cupped in the wind. I think of you who walked in today carrying quiet questions. You who love Jesus and still wonder how His promises stand tall in a world that leans hard. You who have prayed for ...read more

The sermon urges us to notice others’ struggles and actively support one another with practical love, reflecting Jesus by carrying each other’s burdens.

Friends, welcome. If we could see the invisible backpacks in this room, we’d see them bulging. Some are stuffed with worry about kids or parents. Some sag with bills that don’t match the paycheck.

Chosen, Not Chasing PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 23, 2025

God sees and values our hidden faithfulness, works through our weakness, and calls us to trust His authority and power through prayerful obedience.

Some of us know the quiet corners of life—the cubicle where no one notices, the kitchen where you serve with a smile, the classroom where faith is a whisper. You wonder, Does God see me here? Does this count? Friend, the Father’s eyes are not dim. He sees the sparrow’s flight and your faithful ...read more

INTRODUCTION In the scripture read, the disciples were perplexed as to why they could not rebuke the devil and thus heal and restore the boy. Jesus answer was simple—they had a lack of faith.
