““like a tree that's planted by the waters we shall not be moved” — an image of stability and fruitfulness.”
A sermon based on Galatians 5:1 declaring a "public service announcement": Christ has liberated believers from slavery to the past and to systems that devalue them. The preacher exhorts listeners to stop living "in their head," embrace their God-given freedom, stand firm in community, resist returning to old yokes, and respond in faith (including salvation, joining the church, and service).
“you shall be like a plant by the rivers is of water that bring it forth its fruit in its season; its roots also shall not wither and whatsoever you do it shall prosper”
Youth Sunday message (John 15:1-19) urging believers to "stay connected" to Christ—the true vine—emphasizing abiding, pruning/purging of sin, and practical means of remaining rooted (prayer, Scripture, fasting, corporate worship). Service included worship, church announcements (youth events, anniversary), testimonies (camp baptisms), giving, and an altar call for salvation, healing, and deliverance.
