Finding the Smile of God in Your Valley

June 04, 2026

Summary

When your life is stripped bare, what do you have left to hold on to? Matthew 5 reveals that the truly blessed ones are often the world’s losers. In this message, Pastor Philip Miller reveals why the valley is where we find more of God and the truly blessed life. When we’re vilified for doing what’s right, Jesus promises to stand with us. 

This is part two of the sermon, “The Blessed Ones (Part 2).”

The Pursuit Of Holiness

Because of grace we don’t have to earn our salvation but sometimes that leaves us wondering what our part in holiness should be. Jerry Bridges helps us see where we should rely on God―and where we should accept responsibility and exercise discipline.
