Your Bitter Sweet Life Now

Pastor Eric preaches this robust sermon entitled, "Your Bittersweet Life Now". Most people enjoy having a sweet treat as a snack. Unfortunately, this desire for something sweet has infiltrated the modern church. Like the rich man in Luke 16, many resemble his attitude and behavior to receive and enjoy only good things in this life. So sweet! Real believers, however, are quick to learn that the character of Christ cannot be formed in us unless we experience the agony, the travailing, the persevering, the bitterness that produces the spiritual sweetness of the crown of Christ within our lives! Psalms 126 teaches us that, "Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy." Listen to this sermon now and let the conviction of the Holy Spirit illuminate areas where you are only wanting the sugary sweet life instead of pressing into the tribulation, difficulty, and hardships that form the crown of Christ's character in you.
