We come across moments in our lives everyday that are impossible for us to live for Christ through if we do not prepare ourselves beforehand to come up against them. We can sometimes see these kinds of situations from afar--problems at work, temptations to lust around certain people at school, drama at home--and unless we prepare for these trials we won't stand when the time comes.

How do we prepare for trials if we want to live for Christ? Pastor Cox shares from God's Word about Apostle Paul's heart and how he got ready for trials before they came--his determination to be unashamed, his search for enough courage to stand in each moment, and his ever-present desire to magnify Christ in his circumstances. This sermon will convict and challenge you to make sure Christ is at the center of your heart and life.

Youth Leader Eric Vaughn speaks to us on the plan Satan has on the youth and why it is working on this generation and the need for Christian youth to stand up and not be so easily taken in by it.
