Even the smallest deviation will cause us to miss the mark. We are to sanctify Christ as Lord in our hearts because God is holy. We must be holy as well. Do we know the bible well enough so that we can give an answer to all who ask about the hope that we have? Ours is a glorious hope.

Created In The Image Of God Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 8, 2022

This message looks at the concept of being created in the image of God, what that means and how the image becomes distorted.

Don't Just Do Something, Sit There

Contributed by W Pittendreigh on Nov 5, 2003

A few years ago I was in a conversation with some folks and we started talking about Sunday morning worship and each of us began sharing what was his or her favorite part. One person said it was the Apostles’ Creed, because it was at that moment that he was able to stand up and declare his ...read more
