Lesson 4: Trials

March 26, 2024 • Pastor Joseph Timms

I Peter 4:12-13 – Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful

trial you are suffering, as though something strange were

happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the

sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when His

glory is revealed.

Soon after we are born again the Lord begins to TEST our faith.

He often removes the emotions and feelings we have been

experiencing to cause us to walk by faith. This does not mean

He has deserted you!

Lesson 3: Power of the Holy Spirit

March 26, 2024 • Pastor Paul Landry

Acts 1:4-5 – On one occasion, while He was eating with them, He gave this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.” Jesus did not want His disciples to immediately begin telling others about Him. He told them to wait for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, because He knew the POWER they were to receive was essential for the task ahead of them.
