PASTOR’S MESSAGE
Hi Friends,
Genesis 6:11-12 Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence. God saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.
Corruption typically happens because people are striving either for power, wealth, or comfort. For many power, wealth, or comfort is the “win” of life.
But for Jesus the “win” came through giving up all of those things. He gave up everything.
This weekend we are continuing our Origins series and we will see Jesus show us how to “win” at life.
You’re invited to join us for worship this Sunday at 9:00 or 10:30am. You can worship at Victory, on our live stream site, or on our YouTube channel.
Sharing Christ’s Victory,
Pastor Bill
CURRENT SERIES: Origins
ICYMI: Pastor Ben continued the series with a lesson in Genesis 4 about the origin of envy. We learned about the story of two brothers, Cain and Abel. From this story, we learned that when we acknowledge what is wrong inside of us we recognize that our real battle is not against flesh and blood, it is against the spiritual forces that are at work inside of us. The good news is that you can rule over it, by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. To read and watch the message, click here.
Coming Up This Weekend: Pastor Bill continues the series with a message in Genesis 6-9. Not only are there individuals who are wicked, but we can see systems and institutions that conspire together in their corruption. Wickedness and evil permeate so much of society that we can’t even so our own contribution. This section of Genesis tells the story of how a whole group of people can be led off into evil, and more importantly, what we can do to remain faithful to the Lord. You can join in on Sunday at 9:00 or 10:30am at Victory, on our live stream site, or our YouTube channel.
