What if the loudest storm in your life isn’t outside you, but inside you, and it finally meets Someone stronger?

This Sunday, we’re stepping into Mark 5, where even demons bow and chains snap at the name of Jesus. If evil isolates, dehumanizes, torments, and enslaves, what could freedom look like for you, your family, your mind? We’ll talk real spiritual battle, real authority in Christ, and practical ways to fight that actually work. And we won’t stop at freedom for ourselves, we’ll discover why freed people become rescuers.

Bring a friend, bring your questions, and come ready to encounter the One who turns tombs into testimonies.

Please pray for Pastor Steve and the team as they prepare for our service.

Scripture: Mark 5:1-20
