Overcoming



I am excited to announce our new small group series "Overcoming", starting this Fall. This will be an 8 week series for the months of September and October. God put this on my heart to develop thoughts scripturally on how to overcome the many obstacles in our life. Each day, we face many challenges that seem almost impossible to overcome; yet God says in I John that we can overcome the "wicked one", because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. He also says that our faith is the victory that "overcometh the world."

Do you struggle with Fear? Do you lay awake at night and in your mind think about the worst possible scenerios in every situation? What about doubt? Do you constantly think you will fail, and that God won't come through? Then there is guilt. Guilt steals today's joy, and destroys our future, because we can't forget the past. Depression is something that some of the greatest men of God faced in the Bible, and it made them want to quit and die. Stress caused David to say that his heart was overwhelmed. Temptation is something we will face until the day we die. Hurt has wounded all of us, and if not dealt with will cause us to hurt others. Do you find yourself always about to explode in anger? Anger and bitterness are root problems that can destroy us.

In this eight week series, we will look at God's Word and see how to overcome these challenges that we are faced with everyday. I encourage you to join us on Wednesdays in September and October and see how God can give you the power to be an overcomer.
