    The Bible tells us that loving God includes loving people. Regardless of how unequipped you may feel, God wants to, and will, use you in order to make a difference and eternal impact in the lives of others.

    Jesus is clear in His teachings that forgiveness is absolutely necessary. But forgiveness can seem nearly impossible when you don’t fully understand what it means.

    When we live by standards that are lower than those set by God, we are allowing an unhealthy compromise, which is the quickest way to find yourself off the course of your God-given calling. In week two of this series, Pastor Brian uses the Biblical story of Sampson to show how even the strongest can fall because of compromises that are given room to grow. We can also see the steps to take in order to not let compromise take control of our lives.

Pastor Dan reminds us that we have the word of God and the Spirit of God to guide us when it feels like He has gone quiet.

    Merry Christmas, Queen City Church! We are so happy to be celebrating with you! This season can be a lot of different things – great, stressful, expensive, overrated – And Christmas has a tendency to magnify those things.
