LIVING IN PEACEFUL ENCOURAGEMENT

Last updated on: February 11, 2022 at 10:00 am By Pastor Kelly M. Williams

LIVING IN PEACEFUL ENCOURAGEMENT Thirty years ago, my mother was killed by a drunk driver at the age of forty-five. It rocked my world, caused me to question everything I knew about God, and has reshaped every day of my life since. I honor her life with my life and will to the day I die. Her godly fingerprints are all over my life. I remember when my mother was killed, it sent me into great season... Read more

LAUREN DAIGLE AND CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION At the Dove Awards show, a few months ago, Lauren Daigle was asked by a reporter to share her encouragement to the younger generation.

STAY IN THE JEEP We are now almost two years into this covid pandemic and emotionally and spiritually we are starting to see the toll that this season is taking on the hearts of God’s people, especially families with children and students.

Working Out Peace

Last updated on: November 29, 2021 at 3:39 pm By Pastor Kelly M. Williams

WORKING OUT PEACE The anxiety you feel right now is an opportunity for God to show you how His peace, that is already in you through His Holy Spirit as His child, can still come out of you and overcome the anxiety in you. His presence of peace in you is greater than the anxiety coming from the circumstances around you. Certainly ask God to change your circumstances, but my experience is, God wants to often times teach me... Read more

COURAGEOUS THOUGH NOT IN CONTROL God has chosen all of us to live a crazy calling Do you ever get tired of living in the ambiguity of your faith?

Courageous Trust In God’s Promises

Last updated on: October 17, 2021 at 12:48 pm By Pastor Kelly M. Williams

COURAGEOUS TRUST IN GOD’S PROMISES Every person has a story. Every person has brokenness in their lives. We must courageously trust Christ and tell our stories of how God fulfilled His promises in our lives and restored what was broken in our lives. Jeremiah the Prophet taught God’s people in his day to do just that. He showed them how to courageously trust in God’s promises to restore what was broken in their lives. You and I can follow...

“Let’s Roll”: REMEMBERING 9/11 AND SPIRITUAL PTSD Perpetual questioning of a negative situation triggers pervasive anxiety All of us are searching for something in our present to help us make sense of our past.
