A Word from Our Pastor
What a day to be in worship! We are so glad to have our teenagers home from Camp! Students, flood us and fill us with your enthusiasm!
In regards to this morning’s sermon, I’ve got some questions for you…Have you ever hit a pothole? Have you ever been in a sinkhole? Absolutely, right? We all have! The road to success is not all smooth. The truth is that life is filled with painful, troubling experiences, and the key to success is how you react when you find yourself at rock bottom.
This morning we are looking together at more lessons along “Joseph’s Road” as he hits some potholes and sinkholes. Be listening for God to speak to you!
Love in Christ,
Dr. Danny
