     | 925 views

    It's astonishing how we can miss this simple connection. We can get so focused on belief in scripture, a worldview, a depiction of reality, which is all good stuff, that we can all together miss that the goal is to know the real God who behind all this information.

    The thing we need to discover is this: Who is God, really? That is the chief question. Nothing else really matters.

    Will there come a time in America when Christians' faith will literally be on trial in courts of law? If you doubt it, you're wrong. We are living in the beginning of those times. What should we do? See what Peter wrote to the strangers scattered abroad.

     | 3,000 views

    In order to answer the question, ‘what does it mean’ you must first answer the question ‘what is real’? I realize most people are not asking this question. But philosophers and scientists do.

    The purpose of apologetics is to present biblical answers to the questions of Origin, Meaning, Morality, Destiny. If you can answer the questions of these issues you have presented a worldview This morning I’d like to focus only on one aspect of this collection of four questions-the ...read more

    The dictionary defines imposition as a burden, a annoyance, a nuisance and an obligation. Most people describe evangelism as something we are supposed to do to people. Evangelism really a message we are called to share with people.

    In our Scripture for today we can easily conclude that love is not an emotion as much as it is an emulation of the One who first loved us. Love is more than a longing -- it is an action.
