(James 1:2-8)
What can we do to prepare ourselves for setbacks and frustrations when life doesn’t go the way we want it to? When we understand this wisdom from the Book of James, we can include the ‘sour’ with the sweet in our lives to experience the fullness of all the good that God has planned for us.
The Bridge Church is very grateful to Island ECC for the use of their sermon videos over the summer period.

Island ECC has graciously offered to let TBC use their video sermons over the summer. Today, we will begin with their series called Sweet and Sour. Pastor Brett Hilliard will be teaching that Jesus promises both an abundant life and a life full of trouble. If we don’t adjust our expectations accordingly, we are destined to have either a distorted view of God or a bitter disappointment. Merging both the sweet promises of God and the sour realities of life on earth make for a grounded and hopeful faith.
Kevin will preach again on July 9, and then we will continue with the Sweet and Sour series from IECC.

One of the favorite words of most little kids is "Mine!" Let's be honest: adults might be more polite and sophisticated, but we often feel the same way. This week we'll be looking at the radical generosity of the early Church and thinking about why they were able to be so generous.

Doctrine is boring. I don't care about theology. I just love Jesus. Have you ever thought that or heard someone say that? This Sunday, we'll look at why doctrine does matter; in some cases it's a life and death matter.

How do I know if something is from God or not? And do I actually care? Those are the million dollar questions we'll be exploring this Sunday as we continue in our Kairos series in the Book of Acts.

We have been studying Kairos; moments where God steps into time and does something new and exciting, demanding our participation. These moments are holy, powerful and ordained. This week we will see what happens when we subvert or stand in the way of what God is doing. We will see a God who will not let anything or anyone stand in the way of his perfect will and ask ourselves how we can stand with God in these moments of dangerous holiness.

William Carey said, "Expect great things; attempt great things." That can only be true if we trust in a great God. This Sunday, we'll continue in our Kairos series with a look at how we can respond to the dangers and disappointments of life with a deep confidence in the sovereign goodness of God.
