new year sermon

When it’s all over how do you think you will remember 2022? We can suspect what the coming year will bring, but if we've learned anything over the past few years, none of us really know what’s going to happen. In many ways, we have no control over what will happen in 2022. Yet, there are a few things we can take comfort in to ensure that 2022 will be a year to remember.

Sermon: "A 2022 To Remember"
Scripture: James 4:13-17
Speaker: Pastor Tim Chicola
Date: January 2, 2022

Stay Rooted in your faith Mont Belvieu! Paul asks the Colossians to continue living their lives in Jesus. This is a challenge for today's church as much as it was for them. When thinking about a brand new year, what do you want for your life? Do you want to have a closer relationship with Jesus? What are you willing to do to get that? God shows us throughout scripture that he always stands with open arms waiting on the arrival of the sinner who repents. Are you willing to come back to him? 

In Matthew's gospel, Jesus talks about building a foundation on the sand or the rock. One foundation is firm while the other is easily swept away to sea. Jesus said the rains will come either way, but you have to pick a foundation for your life.
