    We are called to share our lives, serve out of a pure heart and seek to bring out the best in others.

I have seen some who seemed to have had a conversion experience, but for no apparent reason fall away from the Lord. They return to their old lifestyles and ...read more

If you do, it won’t be perfect any more!” Since local churches are made up of human beings, saved by God’s grace, no church is perfect. ...read more
