"It's Time to Grow Up"

First Sunday (May 3, 2009)
Sermon by: Pastor Darryl L. Winston

It's the first Sunday of May (Communion Sunday) and Greater Works Assembly welcomed the return of the Youth Department's Children Church. Special thanks to ALL of the parents who did a great job of getting your children signed in.

Inner Court ministered under the anointing today which always makes preaching easy for Pastor Winston.

Pastor Winston PREACHED the Word of God and encouraged and challenged the people of God TO GROW UP. Today's sermon title: IT'S TIME TO GROW UP!

Scripture References: Hebrews 6, Matthew 5:48, Ephesians 4:15, Matthew 11:29
