Praise You in this Storm — Remain Patient
Pastor Nathan Wakefield continues Praise You in this Storm, a sermon series through Genesis. This week, in Genesis 8:1-16, we see that in the midst of life's storms and difficulties, we can find hope and strength in God's faithfulness, remembering that He remembers us in our struggles. By remaining patient and obedient like Noah, we can trust in God's timing and promises. Video of the worship service is available beginning Sunday at 9:30 AM at https://southviewbaptist.org/live.
