From Although To Yet

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 21, 2025

Based on the prophet Habakkuk's journey from honest complaint to unshakable praise, this sermon explores how faith can find joy not by denying suffering, but by making a radical choice to rejoice in God even when everything has fallen apart.

Satisfying The Real Thirst Series

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 26, 2025

This sermon on Psalm 63 describes how David, in the wilderness, expressed a desperate, physical and spiritual thirst for God's presence, which he valued as better than life itself and which ultimately brought him deep satisfaction and confident praise.

When King David penned these words, he wasn't in the comfort of his home, surrounded by friends and family. The heading of the psalm tells us he was in the wilderness of Judah. ?Imagine that ...read more

Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 20, 2003

Before David was forced into the wilderness he was obsessed with his own comfort and the satisfaction of his own needs. It’s only when everything is taken from him that he becomes obsessed with God Himself, finding full satisfaction in his praise of Him.

Love That is Better Than Life I came across some actual signs this week. On a plumbing company’s van: “A flush beats a full house!” At a tire shop in Milwaukee: “Invite us to your next blowout!” At a towing company: “We don’t charge an arm and a leg. We want tows.” On a maternity room door: ...read more
