Honesty, However Ugly

For last week’s sermon at Woodland Hills Church, Greg spoke about the importance of being honest with God about our struggles and doubts. This is part of what it means to be in a genuine relationship with God, and the Bible is full of characters who demonstrate this for us. Is it difficult for you to be raw and honest with the Lord? Take heart. He welcomes you exactly where you’re at.

You can download video and audio files of the sermon here.

Sermons: It’s The End Of The World As We Know It
