Sermon Series:

Faith in the Real World: Stories Told for People Like Us.

Over the next 5 weeks we’ll discover:

How faith shows up in the small things
Why compassion matters, even when it’s riskey
What it means to trust God when it takes time
How gratitude can transform us
Why prayer is worth holding onto

From Pastor TJ’s sermon titled “When Faith Takes Time”.

“The world says: Fast. Instant. Immediate.

God says: Wait. Be patient. Trust me.“

– Pastor TJ Lynch
