The Journey To Belief
October 15, 2023 • Pastor Terry Brown
The journey each of us take to believing includes a variety of experiences. The earliest Christians had amazing times when they sat and listened to Jesus teach, but they also experienced the devastating time where He was crucified and buried. They must have thought that their journey was over. But shortly after they discovered the empty tomb, their journey continued. In a similar way, Christians and those who would become Christians experience the journey to believing. Join Pastor Terry as he encourages each of us to continue the Journey! NEXT STEPS: - I will accept the reality of believing, and I will also ask God to help me in my unbelief. - Wherever I presently am on the Journey, I will look more and more closely at His story. - Today, with God opening my eyes, I believe!

NEXT STEPS: - I will rest in the finished work of Jesus to provide for my future. - I will DO things not to earn God’s love or favor, but because of what He has DONE for me. - I commit not to a life of religion, but to a life of declaring the Good News of Jesus.
