We all experience pain that wounds us and scars us. As Troy shares from our Win the Day series, the way we release scar tissue, spiritually speaking, is through forgiveness. If we choose not to forgive, we struggle to experience joy and intimacy, and we become trapped by things like rage and bitterness.

This is the audio from the memorial service for Pearl Gower, one of our beloved members at Sunrise. Since it's audio only, the slideshow music is not included. What a life well lived!

To kick off our new series based on the book, Win the Day, by Mark Batterson, Troy explains that God not only renames us, but actually puts His name on us. He changes our name, which changes our identity. Troy also encourages us to identify some defining moments in our lives because everything in our past is preparation for something in our future.

On this Christmas Eve, Troy encourages us to remember the light that entered this dark world when Jesus was born, which means we have good news that has incredible power and awakens hope.

When you have questions about Jesus and the Christian faith, are you an honest or dishonest doubter? What we find in the Bible is that testing everything, to make sure of what’s true, is a good thing, and that the process often results in people coming to faith. Although we cannot see and know everything about God, we are not expected to have a blind faith. Instead, we discover that facts are the basis of our faith.
