    Finding God's Goodness Amidst Difficulties SermonCentral

     | 1,105 views

    James in his first chapter warns us not to be deceived, providing reasons to believe in God's goodness regardless of our circumstances.

    In the late 90s, there was a popular saying in the church: "God is good, all the time; all the time, God is good." It's easy to proclaim God's goodness when things are going well, but what about when we face difficult circumstances? How can we know that God is truly good? In James 1:16-18, we find ...read more

    God knows how to open the door of opportunity to us to do his work. And though there are many that oppose his work, none can impede it. Even the gates of hell cannot prevail against it! I Cor 16:9, "For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries."

    In his letter to the Corinthians from Ephesus, Paul expresses his desire to reunite with the Corinthian converts and spend significant time with them. However, he acknowledges that he must wait until God completes His work in Ephesus, where a great and effective opportunity has been opened for him. ...read more

    Life is a battlefield, and without God's help, we face defeat, humiliation, and abandonment. With divine assistance, we can overcome these challenges.

    In this world, we are engaged in a constant battle. Without the assistance of God, we are bound to face defeat, humiliation, and shame. People will forget about us, and others will abandon us. Let us consider the story of Joseph in Genesis 40:9-14. Joseph sought help from a man, but that man forgot ...read more

    This is the fifth talk in a course called "Trauma and Transformation, Level 2". This advanced course takes a bio-psycho-socio-spiritual approach to healing. Both Christians and non-Christians are in attendance, so the homily is presented with that in mind.

He’s in his own little world and very interested in what's on the plate, but his Mom won’t let him touch it (to not get baby goo on the food and because it’s a dessert far too high in sugar for him at his age of 10 ...read more

    We all are sinners in need of God’s mercy. Jesus is the only way to salvation. By God’s grace we are embracing His transformational work of salvation in our lives, and God is breaking down obstacles that keep us and others from coming to Him.

    Today we will be looking at Luke chapter 19, to see what Jesus was focused on in the last weeks of His life on earth. We know Jesus was in Jericho enroute to Jerusalem. Back in Luke 9:51, we read, “When the days drew near for [Jesus] to be taken up, He set his face to go to Jerusalem.” On the ...read more
