NMPC+ [063] What's In A Name?

March 14, 2024 10:00 - 1 hour - 43.5 MB

One meta-narrative found throughout the pages of Scripture is the idea of the name. Essentially, God gives Moses not only the encouragement of His presence, but also His name: I AM [WHO I AM]. It seems then, that Believers today, at least to some degree, ought to be armed with the same knowledge of God’s name, as well as what it means to us today. Which begs the question, “How do I take courage is God’s name, today?” What does knowing this name do for me in my everyday living? Join us for P...

Loving Justice

February 11, 2024 20:00 - 40 minutes - 28.2 MB

In this week's message, Pastor Sam reminds us that part of growing in holiness requires relearning and adoring what God adores -- learning his affections to mold our own.
