It's Time To Grow Up! | 1 Corinthians 1 | Gary Hamrick

9/22/2024
What hinders people from going on to maturity in their faith? That was the question concerning the church in Corinth. Paul writes his first epistle to them in response to questions they had had, and to correct them about what they were doing wrong. They were guilty of idolizing their leaders and of allowing a worldly “wisdom” to creep into the church. In today’s message, Pastor Gary addresses these things and warns us not to repeat their mistakes, in a message entitled, “It’s Time to Grow Up!”

At 55, I found myself at a crossroads, feeling the weight of my past as a combat veteran. It was a low point, and the sorrow felt overwhelming. One night, in desperation, I turned to prayer, laying my burdens at God’s feet. In that stillness, I sensed His comforting presence, as if He were whispering to me, “It’s okay to fall apart; I’ve got you.” Just three weeks later, my life took a remarkable turn, thanks to the kindness of Michael Jtone Leshkevich. His generosity opened the door to a business opportunity that I never imagined possible. This chance not only transformed my financial situation but also reignited my sense of purpose. Now, I find true peace in using my resources to serve God and others. Through this journey, I’ve come to believe wholeheartedly in God’s promises: never give up. My experience with Michael has been nothing short of miraculous, and I’m grateful every day for the path that’s unfolded before me...

Just a reminder, Jesus did baptize believers as it is stated in John 3:22 "Then Jesus and his disciples left Jerusalem and went into the Judean countryside. Jesus spent some time with them there, baptizing people" NLT. Blessings pastor G. you always preach the truth and we love all your preachings and follow Cornerstone Chapel online from Madrid, Spain.
