Bell Shoals Church

Dr. Corey Abney, lead pastor of Bell Shoals Church, teaches about another Roadblock to living our best spiritual life- Anger. Sinful anger is uncontrolled anger. We get angry because God gets angry. Being angry is a reality, but living angry is a choice. The key to controlling anger is slowing it. Work to bring healing in close proximity to the hurt.

Dr. Corey Abney, lead pastor of Bell Shoals Church, begins a new series about Roadblocks. This week is about Pride, the seedbed in which all other sins grow.

Humility is a happiness to give God the glory for who we are, what we have, and where we’re going.

Dr. Corey Abney, lead pastor of Bell Shoals Church, brings a unique Easter message from the Old (Numbers) and New (John) Testaments. We are all snakebitten and destined to die. The poison in our veins is the poison of pride. Healing comes by faith to all who look to Jesus. Look and live!

The only hope for curing what’s broken INSIDE of you must come from something OUTSIDE of you.
