This Week: Are We Giving Satan Too Much Credit?
A lot of Christians blame Satan for everything that goes wrong. Revelation actually does the same thing…but not the way you think. In the end, the text shows how small the monster really is compared to the God who saves.
Sermon Series: Monsters and Miracles
The Bible isn’t short on monsters: sea dragons, demons, locust swarms, even kings who lose their humanity, but behind every terrifying image is a deeper truth. Our fears aren’t the end of the story. In Monsters and Miracles, we’ll face the ancient fears that still haunt us—chaos, power, intimacy, deception—and discover the God who brings order, love, and truth out of the darkness.
