What are you under right now? Pressure at work. Problems at home. Financial stress. A situation you can’t fix.

What you’re facing may be bigger than you, but it’s not bigger than God! And when you can get on top of your struggles, people can begin to see how awesome God really is.

Why do we avoid getting involved in broken relationships? Sometimes the answer is uncomfortable: selfishness. It’s easier to protect our peace, let someone else deal with it. But God calls us to something bigger than our selves. Get ready to learn from the Apostle Paul what choosing reconciliation over comfort looks like.

Is this familiar?

All is well… then a disagreement erupts. Harsh words are spoken. An unexpected clash and suddenly, your peace has evaporated. Conflict isn't as simple as one person being right and the other being wrong. Some end in an impasse, and you ‘re left wondering if the pieces can ever be put back together. Where is God when everything feels broken? Open your Bible to Acts 15. Let’s learn how God can work through conflict – and even restore what seems  hopelessly shattered.

Opposition accompanies following God. Paul knew this all too well. His ministry was filled with conflict, disagreement, and resistance. And God showed Himself strong right in the middle of it. Open your Bible to Acts 15 and get ready to see how is God at work, even when things seem to be working against you!

Don’t Quit Before the Fruit Comes Serving God doesn’t mean everything will go smoothly. Scripture shows us a pattern: Communication. Opposition. Perseverance. Fruit. Glory to God. Opposition can make us discouraged, but if we quit when things get difficult, we may never see the fruit God has ahead. This weekend in Big God, Small Me, we look at how God is bigger than our expectations and why perseverance matters. Watch now and be encouraged to keep going.

Discover why God is bigger than your past and no one is beyond the reach of His grace! PS — Your prayers and encouraging notes have meant a lot to Pastor James – thank you!

Why do some people reject the gospel so strongly? Why do so many live their lives mocking God, ignorant of His Word, completely uninterested in spiritual truth? Jesus’ answer: They're spiritually blind. Before the Apostle Paul became one of the greatest missionaries in history, he wasn't merely resistant to Christ, Paul truly could not see Him. Salvation isn't about winning an argument or trying harder. It's about God opening blind eyes and drawing people to Himself. If you’re discouraged about someone who’s far from God, or praying for a loved one who just doesn't get it, this message will give you hope and a deeper understanding of God's grace.
