    The Supreme Question of Life In Thursday’s Washington Post, an article appeared about a new church in the state of Maryland. I won’t reveal the name of the denomination that is behind this endeavor because I don’t want to publicly criticize it from the pulpit. You can look it up when this sermon ...read more

    The abundant life is not acheived through accumulating worldly possessions.

    Text: “Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near” (Isaiah 55:6). Is the Lord going to move away? Some people might get that idea when they read this Scripture. If you think for a moment, “Seek the LORD while he may be found” does sound like He is ...read more
