“Standing Firm Together” - 10am Traditional Eucharist

Sep 20, 2026 • The Rev. Charlie Holt

This sermon teaches that suffering and hardship are unavoidable parts of life in a broken world, but when they are viewed through our relationship with Jesus, they can become places where believers discover renewed purpose, meaning, and even joy. Drawing from Paul’s imprisonment and the suffering church in Philippi, it emphasizes that Christians are never meant to suffer alone but are called to stand firm together, supporting one another and striving side by side for the faith of the gospel. Ultimately, the sermon encourages believers to trust God’s sovereignty in difficult circumstances and recognize that suffering can draw us closer to Christ, deepen our fellowship with one another, and equip the church to bring the hope and saving grace of Jesus to a hurting world.
