Are you carrying silent burdens that no one else sees? It's time to find real healing and rest. In this powerful Sunday sermon, Pastor Donnie McClurkin shares a heartfelt message about understanding and experiencing the true rest that God offers. Drawing from Matthew 11:28-30 and 1 Peter 5:7, Pastor Donnie reminds us that while many know God, few fully lean on His support, continuing to live stressed and overwhelmed. Pastor Donnie explains the trichotomy of man—body, soul, and spirit—and challenges us to stop masking our inner wounds with superficial faith. Through personal stories and biblical truth, he shows how unresolved pain can block us from the freedom Christ intended. If you are ready to experience the peace and healing only Jesus can give, this message is for you. God does not want us to live burdened or broken. He invites us into His rest, calling us to cast every care on Him and walk fully in healing and wholeness.

Are you carrying burdens you were never meant to carry? In this powerful Resurrection Sunday message, Pastor Donnie McClurkin invites us to encounter the love, rest, and redemption found in Jesus Christ. Centered around Matthew 11:28—"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest"—Pastor McClurkin reminds us that Jesus is meek, lowly in heart, and willing to exchange our heaviness for His peace. This sermon highlights the deep love of Christ, His hatred for what sin does to us, and His desire to see us healed, restored, and walking in freedom. His sacrifice wasn't just to forgive sin, but to end the cycle of shame, guilt, and condemnation. Jesus is not pushing us away—He's calling us closer, ready to heal what's broken and offer new life in Him.

The Bible says that God will command the blessings when people come together in unity. Pastor Donnie McClurkin vehemently opposed the widespread division that has found its way into the body of Christ. He ascertained that this division has put the church in a dangerous place because the church is a substratum of hope and help for the world. He admonished that we should not allow our political differences to bifurcate our fellowship and solidarity because if the church is divided then we will become disconnected and dysfunctional. He then called for unity, reminding us that everyone is valuable and everyone is needed in their respective roles because God has made us as one body, which should never be divided.

As Christians, we have to get real with the reality of life that there's going to be days that we bump into problems, there will be seasons of turbulence, and it is in these times that we are tested if we would cower under the pressure or remain steadfast in our confession of faith in Christ, abide in Him, as He too has been through all that we are going through in life and is the only One who could always come to our aid.

In a reflection about life, Pastor Donnie McClurkin reminds us of the reality of time. Time never stops. Time is a blessing. Every moment that we have is a blessing and although we may at times be duped into complaining about bad times in life, we Christians who know God understand His purposes.

Life is not to be taken lightly, for granted, and abused. Every waking moment that we have is to be respected, understanding that our lives are in the hands of God. Thereby, we must live every moment of our lives in a sincere, mature, sober journey because for every day we live, whether we are young or older, we will come to another phase of living in this journey called life. The lessons that we learn in life, be it from our parents, or from the teachings we receive from church, enables us to have strength for the struggle when the reality of life hits us. Watch as Pastor Donnie McClurkin encourages us to look to God who is the source of our hope and strength in our journey through life.

We live in a day where social media has become the avenue of so-called experts of various topics and certain information and people gravitate to the convenience of social media to learn and get the information, knowledge, or insight of what they are looking for. In this sermon, Elder James Wilson poses the question: What do we do with knowledge as we acquire it? Do we store it as mere information? Do we boast about it because we are better equipped than others? Or do we neglect to consider it? Or misuse or abuse it? To have knowledge is to really apply and live out that knowledge in our lives and experience it.

It's Here, even in the trembling, in the crying, in the storm, like a little pinpoint of light that catches your eye, that catches your attention long enough for you to catch your breath. You become conscious of your breath again. You're able to relax your shoulders down and back again. You may not be smiling, but your Soul is. God Is. You're Hearing... that tone, that Key. Remembering that Presence IS your prayer. Silence is your prayer. Love is my prayer, and Love takes care of Love.
