Sometimes it can be hard to see how good God is when our circumstances are not. How are we supposed to live and look to the world when we claim Jesus but in our situations we find it hard to trust in Him? Join us this week as we begin a new Series: 1 Peter. Following Jesus does not mean the absence of trials and hard times. We may suffer, but because of Jesus, it's only temporary. As God allows trials to build and purify our faith we have hope for eternity.
If God is so good, then why...

What would you do if you had 12 hours until Jesus returned? How would you spend your time? How do you spend your time day to day? Is it talking about Jesus, sharing the Gospel?

How To Get Even When You’re Hurt
May 12, 2024 • Pastor Chris Pratt • John 13:35, 1 Peter 3:8–18
As followers of Jesus, we're called to radical love and unity. Our love proves we're His disciples. Too often, we're known more for who we're against than how we love. But God calls us to repay evil with blessings, turn from evil, do good, and seek peace. He calls evil people to become His children through our love. Spiritual maturity is loving God, understanding His love for us, and sharing that love with others. Even if we suffer for doing good, we're blessed. The gospel spreads as we endure suffering to do good, as Christ did. By loving radically, we lead "haters" to meet Him. Watch the full sermon now and learn how to get even when hurt.
