NLCC Update 10/17

Sermon Updates

“Do you know that God loves it when we vent to Him? He loves it when we cry out to Him? He’d much prefer it than if we take it out on our spouse or our children, or we just go and veg out for 4 hours to movies. Take it out on God.” – Chris Rattay

For those of you who missed it, or want to give it another listen, here is a link to the sermon from Sunday, “Jesus, Give us the Faith to Pray” (y Aqui en español)
