    When Jesus said that we need to love Him (God) with our heart, soul, mind and strength what did He mean? These were not ambiguous terms He used just to fill up space but a trinity of ways to love God with an exclamation point of strength!

     | 2,717 views

    The Scriptures are the inspired, authentic self-revelation of God and as such have primary and foundational authority in all matters of what we believe, what we value, and how we live.

We learned the Bible is God’s self-revelation that pulls back the curtain for us to know who God is, who we are, the purpose of our lives, and the destiny of the ...read more

    Today we're going to use several familiar passages of Scripture to stress the importance of us sharing Christ with the world. Telling others about Jesus is what helps to make a church be an authentic church. Authentic, because we truly care about other's salvation.
