Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Matthew 15:21-28 Supporting Texts: Hebrews 11:6, Mark 11:24, Luke 18:1–8, James 1:6, Romans 4:20–21 INTRODUCTION: There are seasons in life when everything seems to be working against us.

    Our bible reading today is one that is full of feeling, faith, compassion and emotion. It is one of the base lines and benchmarks of the Christian faith.

    The church consists of people, and at some stage in a growing church complaints and differences of opinion will occur. This sermon explores the biblical approach to handling complaints.
