This Sunday Is Online Only 🎥 If everything’s breaking… read this. 🙌🏾
|
Happy Hump Day Reader, If it feels like the pressure is trying to break you, good. That means it still hasn’t won. Because pressure doesn’t just crush. It exposes what cannot be shaken. And if you’re reading this, it means you’re still standing. This week, I want to give you something for the weight you’ve been carrying. Not just encouragement. Real help. Real direction. A resource you can use today. Sermon OverviewTitle: Everything’s Breaking… But You’re Still Standing Scripture Focus: John 16:33, Psalm 46:1, Genesis 41, Matthew 7:24–25 This week, I preached a message for anybody who feels like life has been hitting from every direction. The headlines are heavy. Prices are climbing. Trust in leadership feels shaky. And the pressure keeps building. But here’s what God showed me. When everything is breaking around you, it doesn’t mean your purpose is gone. It means your foundation is being revealed. In this sermon, I walked through the story of Joseph and reminded us that preparation is not fear. It’s faith in action. I shared how Jesus taught us to build our lives on solid ground, so when the rain falls and the pressure hits, we don’t collapse. I also got real about what our communities are facing and why we can’t afford to wait for perfect conditions to take action. This is the time to stand wisely, serve boldly, and stay spiritually grounded. If you’ve been carrying the weight of uncertainty, this message is for you. You’re not just surviving. You’re still standing. And that means your story is not over. Let’s move from pressure to purpose. Together. ▶️ Missed it? You can watch it here​
