In The Movies | Pastor Miles McPherson |
Have you ever watched a movie and realized there was a deeper meaning behind the story? In this new message series, we’ll see how God sets up characters and situations in our lives, moves in our journey, and then restores us through His redemptive power of grace and forgiveness..
You’ll learn that we are all characters in the movie of life, each of us experiencing drama, love, comedy, horror, and maybe even a little science fiction. Our journeys bind us together as our lives intersect, becoming part of God’s larger story and ultimately ending in a finale worth waiting for

Scene: Super-villain Gru has a flashback of his childhood, remembering
how critical, disapproving and defeating his mom was to him.

the Lord to determine his calling - not his family’s opinion or his
earthly position. -1 Samuel 16

Scene two of David’s life as a young man reveals that his
passion and determination was driven by inner peace, and the
peace provided supernatural power to do the impossible.
-1 Samuel 17

unforgiveness, pain and hurt?

own thing? Do the right thing, You will never regret it!

alcoholic abusive father Paddy when he relapses after realizing his
mistakes of the past are here to haunt him.

Lord has compassion on David, but he does not finish well.

confess, repent and turn from regret. Finish well family!
