In this message, we dive deep into 2 Corinthians 7:2-16, exploring the only kind of sorrow that can truly save. Paul addresses the church in Corinth, calling them to genuine repentance—a godly grief that leads to salvation without regret, unlike worldly sorrow that brings only death. What You'll Learn: ✅ The difference between godly sorrow and worldly sorrow ✅ How true repentance transforms lives ✅ Why God won't tolerate an unrepentant heart ✅ How to confront sin the right way—without condemnation but with love ✅ The importance of staying sensitive to the Holy Spirit's conviction Using biblical examples from David, Jehoshaphat, Peter, and Judas, we see how repentance or the lack of it can shape our lives. Key Questions to Consider: Has God been knocking on your heart about something you need to repent of? How does godly sorrow play a role in your relationship with Him? Are you sensitive to the Holy Spirit's conviction?
Join us as we dive into 2 Corinthians 6:1 - 7:1 with a message titled "Elements of an Effective Minister." In this passage, the Apostle Paul lays out key characteristics of a faithful servant of Christ—qualities that flow from a deep, personal relationship with God. What makes a minister truly effective? Is it knowledge, determination, or the ability to sacrifice? While these traits matter, Paul emphasizes that the foundation of effectiveness in ministry is a genuine partnership with God. We're called to work with Him, not just for Him. In this message, we'll explore nine key elements of an effective minister, including: ✅ Living with urgency ✅ Walking in integrity ✅ Developing endurance ✅ Bearing spiritual fruit ✅ Being resilient in trials ✅ Living transparently ✅ Remaining uncompromised by the world ✅ Pursuing holiness Paul reminds us that "Now is the favorable time, now is the day of salvation." As ambassadors of Christ, we have been entrusted with the ministry and message of reconciliation. Let's press in, remain faithful, and embrace the privilege of working alongside God to bring His love to the world!
In this message, we dive deep into the substitutionary atonement of Christ—the ultimate sacrifice that Jesus made for ALL of us. His death on the cross was a one-time, all-sufficient offering to cleanse us of our sins and bring us into a new life in Him. But what does that mean for us today? ✅ Jesus died for all, but not all will receive Him—true atonement requires us to surrender and make Him the Lord of our lives. ✅ Living selflessly—as followers of Christ, we are called to die to ourselves daily and let Jesus guide our every step. ✅ Seeing through God's eyes—as new creations in Christ, we must set aside worldly judgments and love others unconditionally, just as Jesus does. ✅ Walking in the Spirit—every day, we face the battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. The choice is ours: will we yield to God or follow our own ways? Key Scriptures:

Paul reminds us that while we are in our earthly bodies, we are away from the Lord—but we walk by faith, not by sight. What happens when we die? Where do we go? The world has many opinions, but Scripture gives us the absolute truth. No matter the trials we face, we can stand firm in the guarantee given by the Holy Spirit. Our lives have purpose, and our eternity is secure in Christ.
