Do Whatever He Tells You - John 2:1-11
Unfortunately, we weren't promised a good time for a short time. We were promised a short time of hard times. One thing we were promised was that we could know Him who our hearts desire and that would be enough. We have accepted the invitation to know Him in the past but will we accept the invitation again- especially in difficult times? John 2:1-11, shows us that Jesus in His timing, will make himself known in the impossible scenarios in our lives.

Since the birth of the Church 2,000 years ago, the Church has struggled to understand the role and function of the Law now that we are under the New Covenant. From the Scriptures, Pastor Ross explains three purposes that God intend with the Law and what role it has today and how we can know God's love for us today.
In Closing - Ephesians 6:23-24
It's a wrap. As we end our study through the book of Ephesians, we look at Paul's blessing to the church in his closing remarks. Pastor Ross explores how four words - peace, love, faith, and grace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ can bring healing to anyone that is hurting.

Satisfy my Soul - Psalm 81
More often than not we say ‘yes’ to sin because we do not trust God to provide for our needs. All human beings are created with deep-seated needs to be met by God and His wealth of resources. The problem arrives when we look to illegitimate ways to satisfy those needs in our souls. Psalm 81 is a picture of the Father's heart for humanity on this subject. Pastor Robin helps us see how much God wants to provide for us in everything.
The Helmet of Salvation and the Sword of the Spirit - Ephesians 6:17
As we conclude the Armor of God series, we come to the final two items that every Christian needs in battle – the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit. The helmet of salvation is more about the battle that we face in our minds. And the Sword of the Spirit is how Jesus overcomes those voices in our mind, that we might experience life, His life, today.

THE Fear of Men - Matthew 10:24-33
We all struggle with worrying about what other people think of us or the harm others can do to us. It is often the reason why we are inhibited in letting the life of Christ be expressed through us. Matthew 10:24-33 is the recording of Jesus' teaching on what it is to fear men and how God has uniquely set the believer apart to live in freedom from fear.
The Shield of Faith - Ephesians 6:16
The Apostle Paul warns us that the evil one will rain down flaming missiles in the form of messages of shame, guilt, condemnation, temptation, and fear. How does one protect themselves in that moment? By raising up their shield - which is faith in the person of Jesus Christ and His New Covenant.
Pastor Ross teaches us what is faith and how it's not the size, but the object of our faith - and how holding onto to who we are in Jesus and who He is us will protect us, and those around us.
