I Surrender All

Series: Get Used to Different

September 24, 2023 | James Merritt
Passage: Matthew 5:5

Meekness is not weakness; instead, meekness is a sign of someone who has allowed themselves to be brought under the full control of God. In today’s sermon, Pastor Merritt teaches on meekness and how we must be broken by God in order to be used by God. 

Series Information

Of all the sermons ever preached, one reigns supreme: The Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5-7. In that sermon, Jesus gives practical advice for how a Christian should live. In this extensive sermon series, Pastor Merritt will spend several months walking verse-by-verse through this life-changing sermon. Following Jesus is different from the way of the world, and those who follow Jesus will look different than the rest of the world. Join us for this series: “Get Used to Different: A New Way to Live."
