Sunday Service
The Kingdom is at Hand
What if the peace, abundance, security, and sense of worth we seek are not somewhere beyond us, but already at hand? In this message, RevAna Quintana will explore Jesus’ powerful invitation to awaken to the Kingdom of God by releasing the limiting beliefs that tell us I am not enough, there is not enough, I am unsafe, and I don’t matter. The Kingdom is not something we must earn or wait for. It is a divine reality already present, inviting us to see ourselves, our lives, and our world through a higher Truth.
Speaker: Rev. Ana Quintana
Music: Lynn Hollyfield
