Yes, we are all ships sailing on the Sea of Life and guaranteed to run into all those trials mentioned in today's title. Ps Adam uses the sea adventures of Jonah and Peter, and other Scriptures, to help us learn how to manage our lives when trials and tribulations come. Do you need to listen to this today?

Today Ps Adam has assembled a panel of three of our leaders, all with something in common ..... They grew up in a Christian household! Meet Lizzie, Derek, and Liam. We can all benefit from hearing their stories and how that has lasted into their adult lives. Parents especially can gain encouragement from this message today.

Ps Joey begins by reading an NT scripture and then an OT scripture. She then examines both of them to see what the results were in each. In one case there was a Deadly Comparison. In the other case, there was a successful, God-blessed life. Which one do we all want? Have we all made Deadly Comparisons? Ps Joey shows us how to get it right.

Ps Adam begins with relating his first crush and then on to his True Love, his wife, Ps Joey. And then Jesus ..... Jesus desires us to return to our First Love, that time when we first met Him and were full of excitement. What about later when that dims and we meet hard times and disappointments? Ps Adam leads us through scriptures that help us deal with all this.

Ps Adam points out that all of us have different desires and wants. He reminds us that God gives us the desires of our heart. He reads scriptures to show us that our desires may lead us into failure or into success. He then gives us a line of consciousness to deliver what we want but without harm and in line with God's desires for each of us. We all need this message!

Palm Sunday! Jesus, a King, comes riding on the lowliest of steeds, a donkey! Ps Joey describes just how humble Jesus was. He is the epitome of humility, He is a role model for all of us to follow. She describes some examples of pride in the Bible. She then discusses 3 points to lead us through a pathway to humility. We all succumb to pride. Let us walk this pathway to humility, following Jesus' example.
