Sermons in Stone
with Jim Henry, May 28-30, 2013
Stay Over Opportunity
Register
Every place people go, stone is used to remind hearts and minds of something significant—from landmarks and monuments to memorials and tombstones. Many times in Scripture, God uses stone the same way, whether markers, or altars, or the Ten Commandments. God has very important lessons to teach us, and He knows we easily forget. That’s why He sets up sermons in stone. From the stone young David used to slay Goliath to even—and especially—the stone rolled from Jesus’ tomb, they all speak to us. Come learn what God is saying to help you forge your own sermon in stone—the epitaph you are writing with your own life
