Light in the Darkness

I just finished a series of sermons with the theme of “light in the darkness.” The basic idea is that we can find light when there is darkness all around us, and we can also be light for those who may feel they are stumbling in spiritual darkness. The audio of those messages can be found at the iTunes Store (The Sanctuary Covenant Church), or at the audio archive on our church’s website. Also, most of the messages were accompanied by powerful personal stories, some of which were recorded and are archived here.

Maybe the messages and/or the personal stories will be a blessing to someone.
