Have you ever felt like a breakthrough was just out of reach? Or wondered if your struggles have a greater purpose? This Sunday, we continued our powerful series, Breakthrough, with a message titled: Your Breakthrough Isn’t Just for You. Drawing inspiration from Genesis 50:20 and the story of Joseph, we explored how God uses even the hardest moments in our lives for a bigger purpose.
We learned that breakthroughs often come after a period of waiting and testing, and that they are meant not just for our benefit, but to bless those around us. This message challenges us to see our trials through the lens of God’s providence and to trust Him in the process.
You’ll also hear an incredible testimony from the Carmona family, whose journey of faith and miraculous healing will leave you inspired and in awe of God’s power to restore and redeem.
Are you ready to embrace your breakthrough and step into the purpose God has for you? Watch now and discover how your breakthrough can bring glory to God and hope to others!
📖 Scripture Focus: Genesis 50:20
💡 Key Takeaways:

Our lead pastors, Eddie and Jessica Cole have had a heart for Hampton Roads for many years. While dating – more than 25 years ago! – they were visiting Jessica’s parents in Virginia Beach and Chesapeake and started dreaming about planting a church in the area.
It wasn’t until 2020, while Eddie was serving as a denominational Vice President in Minneapolis, that it became clear God was calling them to take a big leap of faith. They had helped others plant churches for years – now God began to confirm it was their turn. Within months they knew the time had arrived, they were supposed to plant the church they dreamed about in Hampton Roads.
Throughout their entire relationship, they have been doing ministry together. Most of this time was spent leading Salem Church in Staten Island, New York, and doing regional and national denominational work.
They are known for their passion for helping people experience the love and power of God. They have committed themselves to use all their God-given resources to help as many people as possible joyfully embrace and fulfill God’s purpose in their life.
Eddie earned a Doctorate in Ministry from Dallas Theological Seminary and has two Master’s Degrees from Liberty Theological Seminary. Jessica is a graduate of Gateway Theological Institute and has a Bachelor of Science in Religion from Liberty University, as well as a Master’s Degree in Executive Leadership from the Liberty University School of Business.
