The Both/And of 2023

01/09/23 • -1 min

Pastor Gregg Matte shares truths from Psalms 34 about committing this new year to the Lord. There will be both joy and pain in this year so we need to live in the both/and. Both bless and praise Him at all times. Both boast and proclaim Him. Both seek Him in prayer and trust Him in the trials. We also need to celebrate Him as we both taste and see the Lord is good in 2023!

New Year's Day 2023

Cypress Campus Pastor, Jason Swiggart, shares truth from the book of Matthew about our identities in Christ. Identity theft is satan's oldest and most effective plan. The "who" in "who am I?" informs how we think and thus how we live. Jesus' greatest weapons are His identity and the word of God.

Do We Have a Choice?

Pastor Gregg Matte shares questions found in Romans 9 as we continue our study of Paul’s letter to the believers in Rome. Do we have a burden for those who don’t know Jesus? We should have a heart for lost people to know Jesus Christ. Has the Word of God failed because Israel rejected Jesus? God is faithful and God’s Word is true. Is there injustice with God? God is always just in what he does. Who are we to argue with God or find fault in God’s activity? When it’s clear to God and a mystery to us, we trust God. What should we say, then? We should say “great news! Salvation is by faith in Jesus.”
