As Nehemiah and his people celebrate the end of the wall building project, their success is a strong witness to the people around who also needed to know their God.
It all comes together
God's plan revealed

Standing firm for Christ . . . in good times (2)
December 3, 2017 • Pastor Paul Torres
Pastor Paul continues a new series looking at the book of First John. Last week he looked at some of the background information of the book. To whom it was addressed, what the world of their day looked like, what challenges they faced. Today Pastor Paul continues with that discussion, showing us the similarities between the believers then and now. Just as with the believers that the Apostle was writing to, Christians today are being pressured to give up their convictions as Christians to live like the world around them.
Standing firm for Christ . . . in good times
November 19, 2017 • Pastor Paul Torres
In this impactful book of the New Testament, we see the Apostle writing a letter to people who were under attack, not from persecution, but from affluence. They were being pressured to give up their convictions as Christians to live like the world around them. We had not planned it this way, but as things begin to normalize in Puerto Rico after Hurricane María, what better time to remind ourselves to serve Christ first in good times as well as bad?
