    Forgiveness Is Not A Choice

    In light of the recent tragedy in South Carolina, I gave this message on Father's Day.

    1 Peter 4:1-19 (Read) What kind of people offer forgiveness to those who murder their family members? What motivates people to even consider forgiveness towards their enemies? Who has the influential power to cause this kind of response? Do we have that kind of faith? Do you? This week 21 ...read more

    The great joy of being forgiven is realized and appreciated only when we confess our sins before God.

    This week, we take a look into the original songbook of the church, the Psalms. For centuries, the Psalms have been turned to for comfort, for rebuke, praise.
