Spring Cleaning - Scrubbing & Polishing (North OC)
We continue our series, Spring Cleaning: Tending to the Soul, with our third sermon discussing the hard work required to scrub and polish our souls. Marcel uses personal anecdotes to illustrate the process of confronting and overcoming challenges such as pride, resentment, and bitterness while also providing practical steps for engaging in this spiritual deep cleaning. We also receive a call to action to examine our hearts for bitterness and resentment in order to take steps toward spiritual cleanliness.
