About this sermon

6/25/2023 There are times in the course of life when things are hard and life is difficult. In Acts 16, Paul and Silas had been beaten and thrown into prison. They didn’t know whether they would be rescued or whether they would be killed for their faith. Nevertheless, they “prayed and sang” to the Lord because God is worthy of our worship no matter our circumstances. It’s easy to sing when times are good, but how easily do you sing when times are bad? In today’s teaching, Pastor Gary invites us to pray, “Lord, teach me to sing in the darkness.” In other words, even when things are bad in life, may we still have a song on our lips for the One who is worthy of our worship! 00:00 - Introduction 02:39 - Paul's Second Missionary Journey (CA. 50AD) 02:43 - Paul's 3 traveling companions on his second missionary journey. 04:23 - Background on the city of Philippi 26:59 - Lord, Teach me to SING in the darkness. 28:43 - The story of Horatio Spafford 34:23 - Hebrews 13:15 & Psalm 40:1-3 ABOUT US: https://cornerstonechapel.net/hello GROW: If you made a decision to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior text "I have decided" to (703)844-9969.
