    The Truth About Family In Heaven PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 116 views

    Despite our current limited understanding, God promises we will one day see Him clearly, fully known and loved, reunited and whole in His presence.

    If you’ve ever peered through a fogged-up bathroom mirror and tried to make sense of the face staring back, you know the feeling. Shapes are there. Outlines are there. But clarity? It waits.

    The sermon urges us to turn from self-reliance and busyness, remembering that our true purpose and security are found in knowing and seeking God Himself.

    Friends, I’m glad you’re here. Life runs fast, doesn’t it? The calendar fills, the inbox swells, the deadlines line up like dominoes. We build our days with bricks of busyness—palaces of productivity, towers of tasks, fortresses of to-do lists. And yet, there comes that quiet hour when the house ...read more

     | 78 views

    True Christian living finds its meaning and endurance in love; without love, our actions and gifts are empty, but with it, everything gains lasting value.

    Good morning, friends. If you came in today weary, worried, or worn thin, you’re not alone. Some of us have been carrying more than we care to admit—unanswered questions, unspoken hurts, unfinished to-do lists. We try harder, run faster, give more, and still wonder: Why do I feel empty? Why does my ...read more

    God calls us to fruitfulness, inviting our prayers and faithful actions to cultivate blessing, growth, and goodness in every area of our ordinary lives.

    If you listen closely to the first pages of Scripture, you can almost hear it—the cadence of creation, the hush before the first sunrise, the smile of God as He blesses the world He just made. And then, over the first man and woman, He speaks a sentence that still sighs through every hallway of ...read more

    Why do so many road signs use only symbols to convey their message? Because the message is recognizable and understood almost instantly, and because unlike words, symbols hold their meaning and are very often universally understood. Perhaps that is why Go
