The Christian Walk

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 2, 2020

Do people really watch how Christians live? Does our walk really matter? These are some questions that each one of us has faced at one point or have faced over and over. Let's take a look at our Christians walk and see if it really matters.

The word “walk” makes up the entire Christian life of the believer. The word “worthy” means “blessing”. 1 Thessalonians 2:12; because our God has called us into His family.

The Marks Of A Christian - Loyalty

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 2, 2020

Loyalty is a devotion and faithfulness to a nation, cause, philosophy, country, group, or person. Loyalty is hard to find. Trust is easy to lose. Actions speak louder than words. Quote taken from Quotling.com

Deterrents To Church Growth

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 10, 2020

What is church in the business of doing? Are we suppose to grow? Whose fault is it if we don't? I hope to answer some of these questions for us.

Contributed by Adam James on Jan 2, 2017

Often we set a New Year's Resolution, because there is a part of ourselves we are not happy with, or we want to live better than we have before. The world says we can't change. But with God, nothing is impossible.
