The Bond With The Gospel Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 11, 2018

Being saved by grace through faith in the finished work of Christ creates an eternal bond with the Gospel. As we grow and mature in the Lord, the Gospel continually shapes our lives. The life of every believer should be directed by the Gospel.

The Upper Room (Part 2) Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 11, 2018

The Last Supper (Part 2) Mark 14: 12-26 In our last study we began to look at this beautiful passage dealing with the Last Supper in the Upper Room. Jesus had met with His disciples as they prepared to eat the Passover meal. This was a feast the Jews had celebrated for centuries as they ...read more
