This Week | September 20 – 26, 2024

September 22 | Romans – Grasping The Gospel, Romans 8:28, Part 29: The Greatest Verse in the Bible (Part 1) – Pastor Mark Pospisil

Synopsis: Some consider the book of Romans the greatest book in the Bible. Romans 8 is considered the greatest chapter in the book. Romans 8:28 is considered the greatest verse in the chapter. One thing that is for certain, it is an amazing and life changing promise that the Lord has given to us. This one verse shows us so much on the character, sovereignty, providence, and power of God. It has encouraged and comforted Christians for thousands of years. When we grasp that He is working in all things for our good, it gives us a fortitude and strength to handle anything. There is so much to unpack that we will be spending three weeks just on this one verse.

Fighter Verse: Romans 8:28 – “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”

Core Ministries – Weekly Update

I mean, a hand just appears and the fingers write a message on a wall? What?!? Do you have a guy to call if that ever happened to you? Well….Daniel had been faithful before in many things, and that faithfulness caused him to have more and more opportunities before the king. What would our lives look like if we committed to be faithful just one day at a time?
