ClosePastor Hedley Clemo - October 4, 2020
5 smooth stones for facing life's giants
This message was preached on the occasion when the church returned after the 6 month lockdown in 2020 and also during a time when one particular family close to the church had received some very devastating news.
This was a hard time for the church to process why bad things sometimes happen in the lives of Christians.
It gives 5 "smooth stones" which should both "define" and "direct us" for our good when passing through difficult times:
1. God's presence
2. God's goodness
3. God's glory
4. God's compassion
5. God's sufficiency
