For centuries, the Church has celebrated the Festival of All Saints. Through the Scripture, we get a view of the saints who have died and now live in the glory of Christ’s light. Through eyes of faith, we see the saints enjoying glory. We understand that soon enough we shall join all the saints in that glorious heavenly city. And that gives us stamina to face the challenges of this world with the strength Christ gives to all his saints.
Many people believe that freedom means being able to do whatever you want. Jesus says that living however you want takes away your freedom. You will only be free—spiritually, emotionally, eternally—if you hold to his teaching and know his truth. God’s truth brings freedom from slavery to sinful delusions and the burden of guilt. The truth sets us free!
God cannot lie. So, we know every promise he makes, he must keep. When we persistently go to God in prayer and press him to keep his promises, God does not view that as nagging. He loves it! It demonstrates that our faith grasps not only that he can do what we ask, but that he will because he promised.service to others.
The Bible shapes everything we say and sing. Our pastor invests time in sermons that are rooted in Scripture, incorporate both law and gospel, and provide applications for everyday life. We invite you to learn more about our church and join us for worship soon.
