    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Jun 10, 2019
     | 2,911 views

    Sharing and 'doing' love is something that we can do in response to the love that Jesus has already shared with us. However, when we love, we may also fail.

     | 4,448 views

    Part 7 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” as described by Jesus to a crowd of people on a Galilean hillside as he delivered what is more familiarly known as the “Sermon on the Mount.” This part considers blessedness in persecution and insults.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,619 views

    Racism is a sin that roots itself in many hearts and comes from favoritism. James tells us that favoritism has no place in the Church and therefore no place in the heart of a believer in Christ.
