    Psalms 32:1-2 and 2 Peter 1:2-9 It really shouldn’t surprise us at the great lengths the Bible speaks of forgiveness. Our entire message, faith, belief, and life is based on that one thing: forgiveness. And in the Bible, in all the various ways forgiveness is discussed, there stands out, ...read more

    Develop a Christian mindset: 1. Be nice. 2. Be positive. 3. Be thankful

    This will probably be the most basic sermon you have ever heard. Nothing I will say is new or profound.
