This week our guest speaker, Leslie Vernick, will share practical, biblical ways to build healthy and lasting relationships.
In this week's message we explore how to be rooted in Christ through reflection and meditation on God's Word.
Almost isn't enough. In this sermon, learn how you can move from almost to enough by being rooted in Christ!
In order to be rooted in Christ, we need to guard our hearts. This week we will discuss several ways we can do that.
Take a look at what it means to be deeply rooted in the Lord and learn how trusting Him helps us to live a strong, blessed life.
Do you want to be firmly rooted in your faith? How do you know if you are? This week we look at what we need to do in order to stand strong. What we abide in is what we abound in!
Learn essential truths about our faith and the faithfulness of God through the life of Abraham and how they apply to everyday life.
Faith requires us to trust God, take the next step, and handoff to the next generation.
How do we corner and trap the spiders in our lives? Through the truth of God's word as we start embracing truth and putting off our old selves.
Learn how to identify the spiders in your life, the cobwebs they create, and how you can fight against them.
Carlos Whittaker, the author of Kill the Spider, introduces this series by sharing his story and an overview of what it means to kill the spiders (lies) that lurk behind the cobwebs in our lives.
