GREAT FULL
In all of our stories, whether a season of triumph or tribulation, our great GOD is at work. Often in hindsight, we can trace the fullness of GOD’s purposes in all circumstances. Knowing He is ever present, we give thanks.

Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. –1Thessalonians 5:16-18 [NLT]

Join Younger Generation Church in their holiday series, GREAT FULL, Saturdays, 10:15am [Central].
