Through the lives of Jeremiah, Joseph, and the promises of Scripture, you'll be encouraged to stop defining yourself by your past and start embracing the purpose God established for you before you were born. You'll learn: Why your pain is part of your story, but not your identity. How God replants us to redirect us into His purpose. Why God never wastes surrendered pain. How to move from asking, "Why did this happen?" to "Lord, how will You use this for Your glory?" Practical steps to remain rooted in God's Word, Presence, Peace, and Purpose. No matter what you've faced, God is still writing your story. He specializes in bringing beauty from ashes, hope from heartbreak, and purpose from every trial. Your testimony can become someone else's breakthrough because God wastes nothing.

    Why the Cross? More than a Symbol Pastor Verna DeHart

    Why the Cross? – More Than a SymbolSunday, July 12, 2026 Why did Jesus have to die on a cross? Why has this symbol remained central to the Christian faith for over two thousand years? In this powerful message, we discover that the cross is far more than a religious symbol, it is the greatest demonstration of God's love, the place where our sin debt was paid in full, the moment darkness was defeated, and the doorway into our new identity in Christ. Through Scripture, we explore four life-changing truths about the cross: ✝️ The Cross Reveals the Love of GodEven while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. The cross destroys the lie that God is distant or uncaring and declares His overwhelming love for humanity. ✝️ The Cross Paid a Debt We Could Never PayAt Calvary, Jesus canceled the debt of sin, shame, guilt, and judgment. Religion says, "Try harder." The Gospel says, "Jesus paid it." ✝️ The Cross Defeated the Powers of DarknessWhat looked like defeat became Heaven's greatest victory. Through the cross, Jesus triumphed over sin, death, fear, and every power of darkness. ✝️ The Cross Gives Us a New IdentityBecause of Jesus, we are no longer defined by our past, failures, or shame. In Christ, we are forgiven, redeemed, and made completely new. This message also highlights the beautiful significance of water baptism, a public declaration that our old life has been buried with Christ and that we have been raised to walk in newness of life. Key Scriptures:Galatians 6:14 • Romans 5:8 • Colossians 2:13-15 • 2 Corinthians 5:17 • Romans 6:4 No matter what you've done or where you've been, the cross declares: "I see you.""I know you.""I love you.""I came for you." The cross settled your value, secured your future, and purchased your victory. Corporate Declarations:Because of the cross, I am forgiven.Because of the cross, I am loved.Because of the cross, I am free.Because of the cross, I am a new creation.Because of the cross, my future belongs to God. Join us as we celebrate the life-changing power of the cross and the new life that is found in Jesus Christ. Soul Harvest Worship CenterHosting His Presence • Revealing Christ
