Sermon 04/08/2018

Our only hope for a joyful life is to stay near to God at all times.  It's not enough to draw near to God with our words; we must draw near to Him with all our hearts and lives.  Three key points are covered:

• Nearness to God in salvation
• Nearness to God in times of need
• Nearness to God in times of blessing
