Rewrite Your Relationships
A strong healthy relationship doesn't happen by accident. They are shaped by the love of Jesus. Bill will look at Romans 12:9-16, where Paul shares practical wisdom for living out of genuine, love, honoring others, pursuing unity, and showing compassion in our relationships. As God renews our hearts, he also writes the way we should treat others around us, reflecting his love in every connecti
Reconnect
In a culture that celebrates independence, God wants us to be interdependent. Romans 12:3-8 teaches us that each of us has a unique role to play in the body of Christ, and true spiritual growth happens when we connect with God's people and serve according to the gifts He has given us.Downey Adventist Church SermonReconnectCtrl+Alt+Renewed sermon seriesby Chris Famisaran 12 September 2026www.do

Are We Not Afraid?
When we look at the future, it's easy to focus on uncertainty and fear. But Jesus never intended His return to fill our hearts with anxiety. Instead He calls it our "blessed hope" for a reason.
