Preaching and Revival

Mon, 27 Feb 2023 09:20:24 -0500

The Model of Jesus and His Care

Mon, 06 Feb 2023 08:29:41 -0500

Our love is the most important thing in the world-- not our giftedness, knowledge, faith, or even acts of faithfulness.

Becoming People of the Book

Mon, 09 Jan 2023 06:09:31 -0500

Many times Christians have been referred to as "People of the Book." This is because in the past Christians were so devoted to the Bible that even opponents of Christianity understood how important it was to the faith.

Christmas, Singing, and Humility
