Estranged: When It Is Up To Me
Episode description
Church is where we share life together. We welcome each other’s joys and shoulder one another’s pain; we laugh and cry, rejoice and weep; give up our self-conceit and also bear each other’s burdens. We live as family, finding light in the darkness, strength for the journey, and refreshment in the dry patches of life.
The sermon today is titled "Estranged: When It's Up to Me." It is the second installment in our recurring series "The Struggles We Face." The Scripture reading is from Psalm 121 (NLT) & Luke 15 (ESV). Originally preached at the West Side Church of Christ (Searcy, AR) on January 26, 2025. All lessons fit under one of 5 broad categories: Begin, Discover, Grow, Learn, and Serve. This sermon is filed under GROW: Dealing with Struggles and Suffering.
