     | 85 views

    God uses our pain and trials not to harm us, but to grow our hope, maturity, and fruitfulness for His greater purpose.

    Friend, I’m glad you’re here. Some of us walked in today with a quiet ache that doesn’t let go. The diagnosis was unexpected. The stack of bills looks tall. The silence in the house feels louder than it used to. Life can sting. Yet God meets us right in the middle of the mess and whispers a word ...read more

    The sermon urges us to personally confess Jesus as the Christ, surrendering all to Him, and finding true life and identity in wholehearted allegiance to Him.

    There are questions that settle the soul. They steady the heart in a world of headlines and hurry. One question rises above the noise like a bell in a storm. Jesus asks it with gentle authority and unshakable kindness: “Who do you say that I am?” We carry many names on our backs—titles, labels, ...read more

    True satisfaction comes from delighting in God, who lovingly reshapes and fulfills our desires as we trust and surrender our hearts to Him.

    Some of us walked in today with aching hearts, carrying names and needs that feel too heavy for our hands—children we love, futures we can’t forecast, bills that won’t budge, memories that still sting. Others arrived with a quiet hope, a whisper that maybe, just maybe, God has something tender and ...read more

    God’s constant presence brings hope and steadiness in our darkest, most anxious moments, reminding us that His light always shines and overcomes.

    Some of us walked in today with a quiet ache we can’t quite name. Sleep came late. Worry came early. Headlines are heavy, homes feel hurried, and hearts can feel hollowed out by the constant ache of a hard week. We carry questions to our pews: Will the light hold? Will hope last? Does God really ...read more

    God’s grace meets us in our weakness, transforms our identity, and invites us to live in continual amazement and gratitude for His mercy.

    Some days feel like thin ice, don’t they? One more worry, one more regret, and the surface might crack. You smile for the room, but your heart whispers, “I’m worn, I’m weak, I’m wondering.” And then, in the hush of that honest place, a gentle truth arrives: God’s mercy is not measured by your ...read more

    Faithful, unseen acts of kindness matter deeply to God; persist in doing good, trusting that your efforts will bear fruit in His perfect timing.

    Some days feel like a long string of unnoticed kindness. A parent packing lunches after a long shift. A nurse offering a smile under a mask. A teacher giving one more call to a student who’s fallen behind. A caregiver who holds a trembling hand at midnight. Seeds of goodness go into the soil, and ...read more

    The church is compared to a house, and we are the individual building blocks.

    Introduction: This morning, I want to talk about a church building.

    Christ offers comfort for the grieving and cleansing for the guilty, so if you haven’t got any compassion in your heart, you have the worst kind of heart trouble. Because compassion offers what is necessary to heal the hurts of others.

    We will start this message by looking at Matthew 12: 22-24: “Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw. And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David? But when the ...read more
