Believe In Holy Living

Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Feb 20, 2014

Because God is Holy, we must hold onto His gift of holiness which he gave us through His Son Jesus Christ. We must perceive it and understand what it is then believe on it and receive it! Once we have it we need to make sure that we hold onto it.

Make a big deal about then 5-10 minutes into sermon have them come back to the front at different times and say they don’t want my gift and throw it at me.

Living As The Family Of God Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Mar 4, 2014

This week was the beginning of lent. Lent was based on a 40 day fast that some people did in the early church attempting to emulate the 40 day fast of Jesus that took place immediately after His baptism. Over the years it has become connected with the 40 days preceding the resurrection of Jesus ...read more
