    Adapted from Brother Newlands’ Love The Sinner Hate The Sin Sermon. Everyone of us are damaged goods in some way. Jesus will accept us and make us whole.

    I do not believe that God is pleased with the divisions within the Body of Christ that cripple our witness. Where do we draw the line on division and acceptance with one another?

    DIVISION AND UNITY By Pastor Jim May We live in an age when there are great divisions within the church. I have no doubt that I am considered too liberal by some standards, but then there are others, even more liberal than I, who consider me to be too strict and legalistic. Where do we draw the ...read more

    What is it about wayward people? Israel was at the time of Hosea, sick, not right in the head, how could this be addressed, how were they to be healed and what was their future prognosis, if they accepted the treatment?
