What does it mean to live for the eternal and not get caught up in our lives her on Earth? We are often troubled by weakness and loss in this world however, Pastor Mark encourages us that despite these challenges, fixing our eyes on the resurrection gives us strength and we find ultimate fulfillment through glorifying God.

This Sunday we continue our series with the Book of John. When bad things happen to us, do they happen because we deserve it? Through the parable of the healing of the blind man, Pastor Ulysses shows us that this is not necessarily the case. Sin and suffering exist in this world because of what our ancestor Adam did. However, that doesn't mean we should lose heart. We can glorify God through our suffering and become more than our pain.

As Christians, why is fasting important? In today's sermon, Pastor Ulysses teaches us that fasting is a type of earnest prayer to God. It is a way for us to call God to some area of our life that needs attention or repentance. It is also a demonstration of our humility to Him. Through the story of Naboth's Vineyard, we see this in action when a wicked King commits a terrible deed but is shown mercy when he fasts.

What is Christmas really about? Is it about all the gifts we give and receive? Is it about the time off from work? Or is it about just a general spirit of generosity and joy? The Bible tells us that it is about the greatest gift of God to humanity - Jesus Christ. Are we misunderstanding the true meaning of Christmas and its greatest gift Jesus like the political and religious leaders of His time? Then maybe this Christmas message by Pastor Ulysses from Matthew 2:1-15 will change your world upside down.

Pastor Ben Moore blesses us this Sunday with a guest sermon on the vital importance of singing in the Church. He teaches us that if we are to be true disciples of Christ, people that want to follow and be like Jesus, we need to sing. We can serve just by singing and lifting up others with our voice.
