God is Your Comforter (pt3)

Thursday Jul 07, 2022

God comforts us through the most challenging seasons of our lives. The word “comfort” appears SEVEN times in 2 Corinthians 1:1-10. The more we suffer, the more God will provide us with comfort. Psalm 34:18 says “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Jesus went through all that he went through so we know he understands us and what we are going through.

God gives us strength and comfort beyond understanding.

Food is Not God

Monday Jul 04, 2022

Happy July 4^th! When going through rough seasons of life, most of us understand that turning to cigarettes, alcohol and drugs is not good for us. But do we ever stop to think that sometimes we turn to food for the same reasons? We may turn to food when we are missing the blessing that God wants to give us when we turn to him. Join me and our guest Joe August today as he helps us understand the role of food in our lives.

God is waiting to bless you. God is bigger than any pain you have in your past. He is faithful. Be reminded that God is going to take care of you.
