Daniel Yang is the National Director of Churches of Welcome, which seeks to remind the church of our Biblical mandate to love and welcome immigrants and refugees in our midst. In this message he teaches from Revelation 2, the letter to the Church at Smyrna, and reminds us of the persecuted church across the globe. What can we learn from our brothers and sisters around the world who have suffered for their faith? How does God call us to live and follow him as those who are able to practice their faith with freedom and security?

In this week's sermon, we continue our Fall series "The Promise and Problem of More," exploring Solomon's pursuit of satisfaction in riches and possession as captured in Ecclesiastes. Despite the unparalleled accumulation of treasure, Solomon found them empty and unfulfilling, highlighting the vanity of misplaced desires. Here we will contrast this with the Good News of the Kingdom: True fulfillment is found only in Jesus, who offers genuine abundance and purpose. Join us as we learn to redirect our eternal longings toward the Eternal Treasure, who is Christ the Lord!

In a world that is continually pushing us into our polarized groups and encouraging us to view one another with distrust and suspicion, how can we learn to be a people that value first the Imago Dei in every person and refused to dehumanize one another to simply political identities?

In this message we get to hear from Ryan and Jenni Browne. The Brownes have been a key family to GCC since our launch, and just a few years ago launched internationally to serve the nation and people of Ethiopia. What God has continued to teach them about his heart for every person, how to continually prioritize his presence and how God has miraculously provided for them again and again is such a beautiful testimony to the faithfulness of God.
