About the Sermon

In this sermon, we will focus on the importance of community and support in healing from church hurt. We will examine how being vulnerable and seeking support can lead to a deeper sense of community and healing. We will also discuss practical ways to find support and connect with others in our church community.

Serving as Jars of Clay

“We are jars of clay who are fillable with the very presence of God.” Pastor Josue unpacks the biblical metaphor of believers as “jars of clay,” explaining how followers of Jesus are:
Fragile
Finite
Fallible
Fillable
Functional

Faithfulness

In Week 2 of our Be Our Guest series, guest speaker Makayla Lance walks through the story of Abraham and Sarah in Genesis and reminds us of a truth we desperately need to hear:
God is faithful—even when we struggle to believe He will come through.
For 25 years, Abraham and Sarah waited on a promise from God that seemed impossible. And somewhere in the waiting came doubt, frustration, hopelessness, and the temptation to take control themselves.
Maybe you know that feeling too.
