Sermons from August 2023

Praying: Revive Us Again (Psalm 85) // Sunday, September 3, 2023

To be revived AGAIN suggests that revival has happened before. For some, revival is a season of personal spiritual repentance and renewal accompanied by a heartfelt manifestation of emotionalism. For faith communities, it is an intentional movement toward “at-one-ment” with our Triune God and with one another. Journey with us as we use prayer, purpose, cooperation, and perseverance to enter Fall in revival mode!
