Drawing from the profound narrative found in Genesis 21:22-34, Pastor Dave unpacks a timeless message that resonates with believers today.

The psalmist cries out to God in deep distress and sorrow. Throughout the psalm, the writer describes his feelings of isolation, abandonment, and overwhelming affliction. He continually seeks God, mentioning his constant prayer and seeking the Lord’s attention. The tone is desperate, as the writer portrays himself as being among the dead and forgotten. This psalm offers an honest expression of deep anguish and serves as a reminder that it is okay to bring our raw emotions before God. It represents the real human experience of feeling distant from God, even when seeking Him earnestly.

This week, Pastor Dave reads Genesis 14 to show this big idea: There will be conflict in this world. God will protect His promise and help His people.

Pastor Dave York continues to direct us to the Word while we protect our relationships. We will take notice of this big idea: Relationships in the church matter to God. In Christ, God has provided a way for us to protect the unity of relationships.

We continue to learn how to properly reconcile with others by reading Matthew 18:21-35. Pastor Dave York will give us this big idea: The forgiveness of God is the foundation for our forgiveness of others.

We’re up and running in the new sermon series, “Redemptive Relationships.” Join us as Pastor Dave York uses Genesis 3-4 to express this big idea: Sin always separates but Jesus always moves toward reconciliation.
