About this sermon

September 7, 2025 Series: & - When God Holds It All Together (Blessings & Promises) Title: Before & After Text: Joshua 1: 1-11 (NIV) Preacher: Pastor Courtney Clayton Jenkins In a culture driven by division, either/or thinking, and fragmentation, this sacred theme invites us into the holy tension of"&." The ampersand becomes a theological anchor-reminding us that God is not confined to one side or the other, but moves in the middle, holding all things together. From August through Advent, we journey through four interwoven series exploring how God meets us in contradiction, complexity, and connection. Whether we're carrying both joy & sorrow, faith & fear, or hope & uncertainty-God holds it all. In this hinge moment for Israel, God calls Joshua and the people to be strong and courageous as they prepare to cross the Jordan into promise. Just as they stood between the wilderness and the promised land, we too stand between what was and what will be. Don’t miss this timely word as Courtney Clayton Jenkins calls us to step forward with courage, obedience, and faith as we begin our 21-Day Fast: Rooted & Planted. #BlessingsAndPromises #Before&After #SEUCC #BelieveBelongBecome #OnTheLongWalkWithGod
