Sunday 03/29/20 Series: Do we Really Believe? Message – Suffering…Who for the Joy! Share this: Suffering & Glory This week we are continuing in our series on “Do we REALLY believe?” We have been learning for some time about how our actions prove our belief. James challenges those who think one can enter into a relationship with God of knowing and believing without a fundamental and ONGOING life change by saying, “someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without works, and I will show you faith from my works.

Suffering & Glory
Sunday 03/22/20 Series: Do we Really Believe? Message – Suffering & Glory Share this: Suffering & Glory This is a bit of an odd introduction, but as I was studying this topic, which is one of the first I’d ever fully studied out and learned on my own apart from any of my teachers, I was reminded of three stories which, in one way, could not be more different and in another, could not be more similar.

People did what was right in their own eyes
Wednesday 03/11/20 Series: Thru the Bible Message – People did what was right in their own eyes Share this: Thru the Bible: Judges 17-21 People did what was right in their own eyes Judges 17-21 Now this is a set of uncomfortable and difficult chapters. Uncomfortable because of the lack of decency and morality within them which go from the sketchy to down right abominable. Difficult because we again, encounter a method of writing which is always a little off-putting in that chronology is thrown to the wind. A great modern example most people are familiar with is Star […]
