April - It's Worth the Wait

THE CONNECTION BETWEEN PATIENCE AND GOD’S CHARACTER, AS SHOWN THROUGH GOD’S BIG STORY

Waiting is a part of life. Thankfully, we don’t have to wait on our own. Through the Holy Spirit, God can help us experience the patience we need to wait well. After all, God is patient with us. God is in control and knows what’s best for us. Even though God’s people had been waiting for years for the promised Savior, at just the right time, God sent Jesus. Because we’re created in God’s image, we can reflect God’s patience in our lives. We can be patient when we remember what God has done. We can lean on God’s Holy Spirit to give us the strength we need to trust God and show patience with the difficult circumstances in our lives.

WEEK ONE: A Patience Proverb. (Proverbs 14:29)

Bottom Line: Waiting can make you wise.

WEEK TWO: Esau’s Impatience (Genesis 25:24-34)

Bottom Line: When you think you can’t wait, think twice.

WEEK THREE: Golden Calf

Bottom Line: When you have to wait, remember what’s true.

WEEK FOUR: Simeon Waits for the Messiah (Luke 2:25-35)

Bottom Line: God is with you while you wait.

Life Groups

Sundays | 11am

Children’s Building

We believe kids learn best in a small group environment, therefore, we have designated a specific time out of our Sunday morning schedule just for groups. These life groups give us opportunities to reinforce the main point of the day and talk about actual life application at the individual level. All classes are divided into grade levels for the best developmental engagement.
