In our Mid-Week Gathering on October 13, 2021, Pastor Bennett discussed the fear of the unknown. He further unpacks 2 Corinthians 5 starting with verse 16. The fear of the unknown is a normal thing for a lot of people.

In this episode, Pastor Bennett Holloway truly challenges us: are we sharing our stories: how we've overcome trials and situations? Or are we completely missing the point of 2 Corinthians 5:15? You will find more testimony explaining why we should not miss the opportunities when they're presented to us. (October 6, 2021)"(11)Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are made manifest to God; and I hope that we are made manifest also in your consciences. (12)We are not again commending ourselves to you but are giving you an occasion to be proud of us, so that you will have an answer for those who take pride in appearance and not in heart. (13)For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you. (14)For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; (15)and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf."-2 Corinthians 5:11-15If something spoke to your heart today, we'd love to hear from you and walk alongside you.

On September 29, 2021, Pastor Bennett Holloway shared his heart on 2 Corinthians 5. He goes further with the Scripture and talks about how it's ok to be broken, and how Christ can fix our brokenness, making us whole again. "(6)Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord— (7)for we walk by faith, not by sight— (8)we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. (9)Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him. (10)For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad."-2 Corinthians 5:6-10 (NASB)If something spoke to your heart today, we'd love to hear from you and walk alongside you.

(4)For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being burdened, because we do not want to be unclothed but to be clothed, so that what is mortal will be swallowed up by life. (5)Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave us the Spirit as a pledge."-2 Corinthians 5:2-5 (NASB)Later on, Pastor Bennett & Melody Davenport give a bit of their testimonies, and share how God has brought them through.If something spoke to your heart today, we'd love to hear from you and walk alongside you.
