The early Church rejoiced in their suffering, and we too are called to stand firm, knowing that God's Spirit rests upon us in those moments.Join us for this faith-strengthening time of prayer and reflection, and be reminded that your trials are not in vain. You are sharing in something deeply sacred—fellowship with Christ through His sufferings, which leads to eternal reward.

As we finish chapter 1 of Ruth, Pastor Sean dives into three major themes... 1. God's providence 2. The Lamenting of Naomi 3. The Loyalty of Ruth. As we look at Ruth, we need to be reminded of our God. What we know about God will determine how we see Him in our circumstances both good and bad, and our beliefs are revealed during times of testing, tragedy, and trials. What does God have to say about Himself in His word? He doesn't change... do you know Him through His word? Do you trust Him?
