The faith contained in the prayer invites an understanding of suffering as a service to the kingdom of God.

Today, we welcome Pastor Beverly Weeks to teach from Ephesians 2:1-10 in a sermon titled "God's Show and Tell." We, the disobedient, were dead in our sin, and deserved the wrath of God. God shows the riches of his grace by saving us by grace through faith in Christ Jesus and raising us up with Christ.
Today, we welcome Pastor Beverly Weeks to teach from I Corinthians 1:18-25 in a sermon titled "Foolish Message." The message of the cross is foolishness to those who do not believe.
