We Don't Do Distractions

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Feb 24, 2025

As children of God, we are called to live out our faith continually, day by day, in a world that constantly pulls us in different directions and is always striving for our attention. At times we all live as if we have an unlimited time to accomplish our God given work.

Sermon # 2 - Choose The Truth Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 26, 2025

In a world that thrives on lies, as children of God we must decide to follow Jesus who is the Truth. If we do not stand firm on the truth, we will find ourselves compromise with the lies of Satan, and making choices that are contradictory to the true values that God has set for us in His word.

(ESV) In the above mentioned verse ...read more
