Joy can seem elusive in the midst of life’s challenges, stress, and relentless demands. But Paul in the Book of Philippians reveals how a deep connection with Jesus provides joy, even under pressure. In this series, we dive into how gratitude and dependence on Christ bring peace and joy, no matter the daily grind.
Pastor Levi, Pastor Travis, and Lisa talk about being uncompromised, from Nehemiah 6:1-15, including compromise is beneath us, confronting lies with truth, and false prophets peddling fear. This is an episode of Pearls & Swine on the Evangel Houghton Podcast from Evangel Community Church, Houghton, Michigan, October 24, 2023.
Emotional bombs are forms of self-punishment in response to personal failure. Fear, comparison to others, shame, and holding onto our past can lead to mass destruction in our relationships with God and others. In the first part of the Weapons of Destruction sermon series, Levi encourages us to tell our whole story. Our story plus God's story is a great story, especially with a broken past. And we're all broken. The Scripture text as 2 Corinthians 12:8-10. This is a podcast from Evangel Church, September 13, 2015, Houghton, Michigan.
