Green Pastures, Still Waters

If you’ve ever tried to navigate restless nights, dark valleys, or dangerous enemies by yourself, then Psalm 23 is for you. You don’t have to wander through life on your own. There is a Good Shepherd who is ready to lead you, protect you, and walk with you today.

Trusting in the Darkness

We delve into the profound struggles faced by the human soul, using Psalm 130 as a reference. Exploring the concept of the soul's inner life as a boardroom with members: mind, heart, will, conscience, memory, and imagination, Pastor Colin explains how these elements work together to determine one's future direction. Upon coming to faith in Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit enters this 'boardroom' and provides new direction, offering hope and guidance through difficult times.
