Greg encourages us to learn from Habakkuk's response to God in the face of a problem he can't fix and God's solution not coming soon enough or in the way he wanted. Trusting God is not always going to be easy and is particularly difficult when our prays are not being answered and the challenges remain, will we still faithfully turn to God and trust in him?

Greg’s sermon, delivered on Baptism Sunday, centered on the essential practices of the early church in Acts 2:36-47. With several congregation members being baptized, the message provided a meaningful framework for understanding the commitment and transformation baptism signifies. Greg emphasized how early Christians lived out their faith through belief, repentance, community, worship, and evangelism, encouraging the newly baptized and all believers to embrace these practices authentically. This message was particularly relevant as it connected the sacrament of baptism with a call to live in alignment with Jesus' teachings, building a supportive, active church community.
