“It’s not over ‘til it’s over!” “It’s not over ‘til the fat lady sings!” Those common phrases are often used to let people know that the story or game isn’t over. It’s not finished. Discouragement and despair often cause us to think, "My story is finished!” Rahab discovered what we can discover—the story isn’t finished.

Elijah - More Prayer, More Power
March 28, 2021 • Pastor Tim Veenstra
Elijah is an OT Great who reveals to us so much about the very nature of God. God appointed Elijah to the office of prophet, to be his mouthpiece for Israel in a very difficult time in history. The northern kingdom of Israel had turned their backs on God, breaking the covenant relationship by worshiping false gods. So God tasked Elijah with confronting King Ahab, Jezebel, and the prophets of Asherah and Baal in an epic showdown.
David - Mountains & Valleys: Not Defined by a Moment
March 21, 2021 • Pastor Tim Veenstra
David is an OT Great with a story that has many highs and many lows. He is often remembered as a man after God’s own heart, but he also has a checkered past that includes adultery and murder. He has euphoric experiences, like victoriously bringing the Ark of the Covenant into Jerusalem. However, he also has deep moments of despair, like running for his life from his son. David’s life teaches a valuable lesson—our lives are not defined by a moment.
Samuel - Learning to Listen

“God told me!” Have you ever heard someone say that? How can we know if it was truly God talking and not a fleshly impulse? Is it possible to be deceived? How does God communicate? How can I live so that God speaks to me? Samuel gives us a great example of learning to listen to the still, small voice of God. He was young, but the voice of God was crystal clear.
