  • Pursuing the Presence of Jesus, by William Stuart-Lee
    Aug 30 2024

    Long ago, the Israelites followed God, revealed as a cloud during the day and fire during the night, through the desert as they went to the land that they had been promised would be theirs to dwell in. The primary purpose of our lives is to love God and dwell with him forever, but so often we miss out on all the benefits of a relationship with God because we don't know how to truly get to know him and be face to face with him. In this sermon, William expounds on how we can experience the joy of a real, personal relationship with God our Father.

  • The Temptations of Christ, by William Stuart-Lee
    Aug 30 2024

    We've been talking for the last several weeks about the Father Heart of God and about our identity as royalty: sons and daughters of the King of Kings. It is so transformative to know who we are to God, our Father. But knowing who we are does not remove all of life's difficulties. It is a big temptation to try to do something about these struggles that is not what God wants us to do. Will we pass the test and trust God to act, or will we try to change our lives with our own strength? Pastor William shares insights from the life of Jesus to help us rise to the challenge in this final installment of The Father's Heart series.

When we remember just how much Jesus loves us, it is life changing. So, sit back and soak in the encouragement that God has for you in this installment of our sermon series on The Father Heart of God.

  • Royal Sonship, by William Stuart-Lee
    Jul 25 2024

    So many of us don't understand what God thinks of us. Did you know that He loves us so much that He wants to adopt us as his sons and daughters? That means that we are royalty in a very real way. Recognizing this and living according to God's will for us as His children allows us to become the best that we can be. Pastor Willaim explains this wonderful topic in this sermon, the 5th installment of our preaching series on "The Father Heart of God."
