How does a Jesus-looking God contrast against the Christianity of American and the world abroad? How is it throughout history that so many people committed evil acts and atrocities in the name of Jesus and as professed Christians? Please join us as we learn how to accept our past and, in turn, share the true nature of Jesus Christ and what kingdom living looks like in the 21st century.

Welcome to today’s message titled “Heaven Appointed Counselor.” In today’s message, Pastor Harold Long unpacks Romans 8:26-39. The message starts with an illustration introducing the listeners to Brian Stevenson, an attorney from Montgomery, Alabama. Brian’s career is stellar, which is validated by the recent motion picture “Just Mercy.” The story of Brian’s life and career, providing legal counsel to many people falsely accused over the last 30 years, is mindblowing. Next, Pastor Harold uses ten bullet points to unpack our scripture reading to help our listeners understand the passage, and even more important, how to apply the teaching to our lives.
