The love of God is greater than any love we will ever experience.
His love has come down, but it has also come in. His love is in us and is multiplied as we become more like Him. This great love causes us to live in a posture of "expecting". Through triumphs and trials our position is to expect love to show up in it, through it and after it. The birth of Christ reminds us that love remains and is always present.
Joy For The Journey
December 15, 2024 • Elder Lee Malloy
Jesus came over 2000 years ago and along with His birth He also gave birth to His Body, the Church. Jesus set things straight when He came the first time and He ascended and He now sits at the right hand of the Father but He promised He would return. He left us with power in the form of the Holy Spirit to help us on the journey between His first coming and His second. Within the help that the Holy Spirit provides is Joy. Therefore we have in our possession Joy for the journey. As followers of Christ it is a must that we maintain the joy of the Lord for the journey.
Peace Like a River - Advent
December 8, 2024 • Elder Mike Dixon
We are experiencing anxiety, depression, violence and hatred in this world like never before. Yet, our Heavenly Father has already provided peace for us in every area of our lives. The question is, will we follow His commands in order to access that peace which surpasses our understanding.
HOPE: ANCHORED IN ADVENT
December 1, 2024 • Elder Le-Toyja Averhart
We are very aware that for so many in the family of humanity, there is little to celebrate this season, yet the people of God are not without hope! In the sacredness of the Advent season let our hearts again be turned towards our greatest hope and expectation of all that Emmanuel, God with us, means in this hour. As citizens of the Kingdom, may we embrace the tension between now and not yet, looking for the fullness of His Promise in our lives, our families, and the nations of this world—
