The Giver (Jim Ellis) | RESIST (September 27, 2026)

Welcome to Bismarck Community Church! In this first sermon of our "RESIST" series, Pastor Jim Ellis explores Daniel 1 and what it looks like to maintain faithfulness in exile when culture feels like a strong current. If you are searching for a Christian church in Bismarck, ND, or seeking hope and practical wisdom for living out your faith today, we invite you to discover how God is sovereign over all and is the ultimate Giver in our lives.Looking at Daniel 1, Jim highlights that we go to the Book of Daniel not to induce fear, but to give us hope. As followers of Jesus who recognize we are not home yet, we see that every opportunity, favor, and bit of wisdom is a gift from God. As we begin this new series on standing firm, we are challenged to reflect on what God is inviting us to resist doing so we can walk slowly and steadily in His grace.WEEKLY REFLECTION QUESTION: What is God inviting you to resist doing right now?If you live in Bismarck, Mandan, or the surrounding area, we would love to worship with you this Sunday at 10:00 AM!STAY CONNECTED📱 This Week at BCC: https://bismarckcc.org/this-week-at-bcc/🙏 Prayer Request: https://bismarckcc.aware3.net/form/T38OdWE?authToken=__token__🎁 Give Online: https://bismarckcc.org/donate/🌐 Website: https://bismarckcc.org/⛪ NEW TO BCC?
