About the Sermon

In this message, we'll unpack the message of salvation by grace and how it sets us free from the bondage of legalism and self-effort. We'll explore how grace empowers us to live a life of purpose and fulfillment, and how it frees us from the pressure of constantly trying to measure up. Through Galatians 3:1-14, we'll discover how to live by grace and experience the fullness of God's love.

Seeing Beyond the Now

This sermon takes us into the heart of the struggle of waiting on God. Habakkuk’s frustration with God’s timing resonates with our own experiences of feeling like God is slow to act. We’ll explore why God’s responses can seem delayed and gain a deeper understanding of how to trust His perfect timing, even when it challenges our patience.

Making the Most of the Meantime

In this opening sermon, we address the difficult reality of feeling like God is silent during our struggles. By looking at Habakkuk’s honest questions and doubts, we learn how to express our own frustrations to God without losing our faith. We’ll discover that God’s silence doesn’t mean He’s absent and that there is meaning to be found even in the quiet, lonely seasons.

The Law of Sowing and Reaping

In this message, we’ll explore the principle of sowing and reaping and how it applies to our spiritual lives. We’ll discover how to sow good seeds of love, kindness, and generosity, and how they will reap a harvest of blessing in due time. Through Galatians 6:7-10, we’ll learn how to live a life of sowing good seeds and reaping the blessings of God.
