Whether we know it or not, everyone is seeking assurance.

Assurance for the past, for the present and the future. Assurance of God’s love for us. Assurance that our sins are truly forgiven and that God will never hold them against us. Assurance that eternal life is ours and heaven is our forever home.

But is such assurance even possible? Is it arrogant to say we have it? Where do we look to find it?

This morning Pastor Dean will begin our journey through 1 John by sharing his testimony of a long, difficult search for assurance of salvation and where he finally found it.
