In today’s climate of turmoil and uncertainty, threatening and incapacitating feelings run rampant. Yet the God who created your emotions has also given you everything you need to navigate them. The Bible paints relatable and resonant portraits of women and men struggling with grief, anger, guilt, and despair—and provides divine wisdom for transforming your emotional trials into spiritual triumphs.
The search for significance is a journey that many in the post-modern world take. What brings real and relevant purpose to our lives--in other words, what makes our lives really matter? In the, I:Matter sermon series, Dr. Merritt unwraps the search for significance through milestone "I am" statements made by Jesus Christ. Each statement brings us closer to understanding how a relationship with Christ brings us more than just life--but life that makes a difference.
"When you surrender your life to Him and allow Him to be the shepherd of your life and then on a daily basis, you come to the Word of God and you feed on the bread of life and every day by following His will for your life and seeking to live for Him and His glory--that is when you find security and that is when you find significance and that is when you find satisfaction." --Dr. Merritt
