    We are to find joy and grow in faith in all situations. Perhaps when the trials end will be good enough.

    Pure Joy James 1:1-8 At Christmas we sing songs like Joy to the world. We exchange gifts and decorate and most people find joy in the season. As Christians we connect all the celebration to the Birth of Jesus…..But the joy of the season often seems to fade very quickly. There are other times in ...read more

    Romans 5:3-4 speaks of a truth that is challenging yet deeply encouraging: the idea that our problems and trials are not wasted—they serve a purpose.

    Hope That Endures: Finding Strength in Trials Romans 5:3-4 Romans 5:3-4 (NLT) – “We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance.

    Jesus Went On Trial And Noone Stood Up To Defend Him. Will You Stand Up And Be Counted?

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Jul 30, 2024
     | 381 views

    The prophet Isaiah asked the question of the suffering servant “who of his generation protested”? And so we ask the same question “who protested at the time of Jesus' illegal trial and execution?” Of course, the answer to that was no one. No one stood up at the trial to support Jesus.

    Peter wrote to the strangers scattered abroad because of religious persecution not to think it strange when the fiery trials come as though something strange happened to them. They were rather to rejoice in the trials that come their way.

    It is a fact of life that we will go through times of trial, pain, and suffering. This is an encouraging sermon that reminds us that God has a plan for us, and that trials give us an opportunity to grow in faith, wisdom, and maturity.

    You know, everything happens for a reason. Even before I was saved, I seemed to have the knowing that nothing in life was a coincidence. I just knew that we encounter experiences in life for a purpose, either to learn an important life lesson, or to grow in some way, but more importantly, to ...read more

    Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, we should rely on God's strength and remain steadfast in our faith during life's fiery trials, trusting that God will deliver us.

    Good morning, Church! There's no denying that life can throw us into some pretty hot furnaces. You know, those fiery trials that seem unbearable?

    We don’t have to suffer for our faith. But we do have to live for it. And if we never grate against a sinful world, how true to Christ are we being?

    Peter is one of my favorite Bible characters. He’s the one who always opens his mouth before his brain has switched into gear and that’s a failing I have a lot of sympathy with. Remember when the disciples were alone on the boat out in the middle of the Sea of Galilee and they saw Jesus walking ...read more
