Nearly every family in America includes a story of brokenness – another major problem in America. An entire generation’s been damaged by rampant divorce, and fatherless homes.
Over 40 percent of America’s children are born into a single parent household. It’s rare to find a stable, godly home. II Timothy 3 says a sign of the last days is disobedience to parents, marriage problems and other godlessness. Yet we’re not without hope. Scripture encourages us to recognize God as our Father. Each of us, with God’s help start anew. Regardless of your past, you can change the future through a faithful marriage and as a godly parent. We need the Lord’s strength to lead well in our family, but it’s not impossible. This is one problem that can be fixed if we pursue God’s plan for the family in God’s way.

Overcoming Adversity Series: Our Heavenly Home
April 18, 2024
Transcript: The trials of this life can be overwhelming at times, but one blessing for the Christian is the ability to look forward to heaven, knowing that this world is not our home. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. In Philippians 3:20, Scripture says “our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body.” The aches and pains of our humanness will one day be over. I’ve heard it said that as we grow older that what works hurts and what doesn’t hurt, doesn’t work. We can all feel that way as we struggle with sickness or physical pains, but we know there is a day when all things will be made new and we enjoy eternity in the presence of our Lord with all those who believe.

April 17, 2024
Transcript: It’s good to remember that our past and present is all part of God’s plan. It was that way for Joseph – and he recognized it. It can be the same for me and you as well. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. The final chapter of Genesis reveals that Joseph’s brothers feared retaliation from Joseph or judgment from God for selling their younger brother into http://slavery.and and they deserved it. But Joseph wisely responded, “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.” The same attitude can be yours today. Sometimes the worst of troubles can overwhelm us in the moment. But when we trust in God, we can rise above those troubles and understand that God seeks not to destroy us, but to develop us. It’s never about us. It’s about God’s work in us and how we can point others to God who meant it for good. Discover more at American Pastors Network dot net.
Overcoming Adversity Series: God in the Storm
April 16, 2024
Transcript: Why does God allow us to go through the storms of life? One reason is to increase our faith because when we see His power and presence in those storms we realize that He is there. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. The disciples of Jesus once found themselves in a boat during a storm and they feared for their lives. Where was Jesus? He was asleep -in the same boat. They woke him and urged Him to help. Jesus’ response was perfect. Why do you fear? He calmly rebuked the storm and peace returned. All it took was a word from God to change their storm to calm. He hadn’t forgotten them. In the storm, they’d just forgotten Him. Christ is always with those who know Him. His timing is perfect. His power unequaled. Don’t fear even when the storms rage. Look to Jesus. He will guide you through your storm. Discover more at American Pastors Network dot net.
