When God Does the Unexpected with Gordon Bates

Sermon Series:

When God Does the Unexpected with Gordon Bates: 

In today’s message, Gordon challenged us to have open eyes and open hearts for when God does the unexpected. Too often, we become so focused on our plans, routines, and expectations that we fail to see God’s hand at work in our lives. How much more do we risk missing His unexpected blessings today? He also encouraged us to make this coming year a time of intentional reflection by documenting where and when God does the unexpected in our lives. At the end of the year, we can look back, rejoice, and praise Him for His faithfulness.
