Sermon Transcript: I appreciate y'all Thank y'all so much for being here. And I know it may be heavy for you this week, I've talked about it before. But at any given time in our church community, about a third of the people here are involved in government job in some way, whether it's military or otherwise, I know this hits home. And then if you're not that, or even in light of all that, we also h...

Sermon Transcript: I mean, really after last week, the last thing anyone wants pointed out about them is that they're a Cowboys fan. It was kind of a rough week.

Sermon Transcript: All right, well, I'm so glad you have come to gather with us this morning. Or if you're watching online or listening later, I had not obviously any awareness of what was going to be going on in the world stage at this moment. But one of the things that we're working through is different life lessons. And so one of the things I wanted to work through this morning, and I've been p...

Sermon Transcript: So let's go to Isaiah 43. Today, I think it's a great passage and talking about new beginnings and new life that God gives us. Just give you a real quick overview of Isaiah. Isaiah is a prophecy book. It's one of those books that is talked about and referenced around Christmas because a lot of times the hope of a manual the hope of the Savior is in Isaiah. Isaiah is also one of...

Sermon Transcript: Your pastor and I send it on to El Paso right about the same time. I got here in October, and he hurried up and got behind me, came here in November of 2019. And we got here just in time for COVID. I mean, right? It was one of those things we just got going and then ministry started going and all of a sudden it was like you're not here.

Sermon Transcript: Thank you so much, Courtney. Appreciate that. We could see the listening later. Well, we are in the middle of a series on forgiveness.

Sermon Transcript: Well, I just know that as we even say this word forgiveness, and you think about what God may be calling you to do in the coming days, I know that for many in the room, it brings about anxiety.

Sermon Transcript: Thank you so much for the start of the fall semester that you would come and be with us, we don't take that lightly. And she's already sort of brought this up, you know, the image that is behind me is of a heart with a bandaid on it. And the reason why we have band aids booboos from the time we were little is that we have hurts, don't we? And so I know that for many of you, as y...
