    Good morning, church family! Today, we're going to be looking at Romans 5:3-5, which talks about the hope of perseverance, the character of suffering, and the joy of endurance. I think we can all agree that we need more of these qualities in our lives, am I right? Before we dive into the Word, I ...read more

    We can find the “1 Secret” to contentment for:1) A Contented Person Is Satisfied with Little (Phil. 4:11), 2) A Contented Person Is Independent from Circumstances (Phil. 4:12) and, 3) A Contented Person Is Strengthened by Divine Power (Phil. 4:13)

    Philippians 4:11-13. [11] Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. [12] I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound.

    In the Beatitudes, Jesus describes the qualities found in the lives of those who are truly happy. Not in the temporary, circumstantial sense which the world talks about, but in the eternal, ultimate sense which the world knows nothing about. He tells us that true happiness comes when one gains the ...read more
