Sermon from May 3, 2020

Wouldn't it be great if we know our opponent's strategy going into battle? God has given us that capability and advantage in our daily struggle against Satan and his schemes.

As we continue in a series on relationships, Pastor Dan Brenton teaches from scripture to see three things we need to understand about Satan, ourselves, and the world that wreck relationships and dishonor God. Along with that, we see examples of how these work against God's plan for relationships.

What is the answer? The best tool God gives us is keeping his word and His Spirit in front of us daily. We will not live without troubles, but we are not left without guidance.
