Abundant Life - Alton

Pastor Roy talks through Colossians 1:24-2:5 this evening.

If we are to have a faith that is unshakable, we need to put on the full armor of God that protects our mind and heart.

We go through trying times and we can learn something from the resiliency of one of God's smallest creatures.

Pastor Roy talks through the history of Colossus.

The battle is in your mind! When our fleshly desires give into the sin, whatever it may be, we take our mind off of the good things of God. We can control the bait that tempts us into sin.

When we look over world history and American history, we see that circumstances shook people to their core. We are no different. If we don't have a firm foundation of Christ in our lives, we are going to struggle to stand again the devil.

Pastor Roy thinks back to the carefree days of his childhood with lots of bike rides to play baseball and swim with friends. There are some thing that we can do in this summer of a pandemic that can bring a sense of contentment and encouragement.

Pastor Roy talks about happiness.

Pastor Roy has started a new Bible Study on Colossians. This is the first of the series and covers verses Colossians 1:1-14.

The Bible is full of miracles and people with tremendous faith, but no one lives in a miracle bubble. We all have to live with the frailties of life, even those who are in the "Hall of Faith".
