Dear Members,
Have you experienced the power of obedience to God’s Word? Obedience, when you are in an impossible situation, allows you to see God in a whole new way. When God wants you to learn something new about Him, you may find yourself between a rock and a hard place. It is when God brings you out of the situation by the power of His mighty hand that you know nothing is impossible for our Almighty God.
Continue to pray for our church, our nation and Dr. Evans as he prepares for our Fall sermon series, Kingdom Voting. It’s about to get real. Are you ready for your weekly update from our Senior Pastor?
