We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus may be revealed in our mortal body. So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you. Notes: 1: Christians have something priceless A. Knowledge of the glo...

Join us for worship! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjn91kP_HZ0 4/23/2023 Worship Service and Sermon from Brick Lane Community Church in Elverson, PA. Scripture: Psalm 127 Title: The Lord Builds the House Speaker: Clint Estes Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain. In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat--for he grants sleep to those he loves. Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court. Notes: 1. Life is futile without the Lord A. House B. City C. Children D. Anxious toil E. Application 2. Life is fertile with the Lord A. Children B. Sleep C. Application 3. The Lord will buil...

Join us for worship! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bESmFqp__bY 4/16/2023 Worship Service and Sermon from Brick Lane Community Church in Elverson, PA. Worship Leader: Tyler Estes Sermon: Steve Estes Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:1-6 Title: Christians Refusing to Lose Heart Therefore, since through God's mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart. Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to everyone's conscience in the sight of God. And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of the age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who said, "Let light shin...
