Understanding what God’s like will enable us to relate to him in a more healthy and effective ways. And it will enable us to help others know and related to God in more healthy ways. Becoming well acquainted with God, and how he operates, what he values and what cuts across the grain of his very nature has tons of practical value for us as we live out our lives and learn to follow him.

The Forgiveness of God
September 3, 2023 • Pastor Dillon Barber
Today we are going to talk about the forgiveness of God. But what does forgiveness have to do with the nature of God or the character of God? As I wrestled with that question this week I came to this simple conclusion. Forgiveness is the natural outcome of all of God’s attributes.
The Goodness of God
August 20, 2023 • Pastor Brian Long
The attribute before us today is the “Goodness of God.” As we consider the Goodness of God I want to do three things: (1) I want to begin by refreshing our awareness of the Bible’s repeated declaration that our God is totally and completely good, (2) Having refreshed ourselves in that, I want to talk briefly about the mistake people often make when they doubt the goodness of God when bad stuff happens in life, and (3) I want to remind you why it is so important for you and I to keep a firm hold on the truth that God is good.
