Christian Confession Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

Christians have needlessly borne mountains of guilt when they might have had it dissolved and cleansed through the blood of Christ. Continuous and consistent confession of sin is a must for a Christian.

The one thing all people have in common is guilt. Ever since Adam and Eve hid from God, because they were afraid, out of a sense of guilt, man has had to bear the burden, and suffer the effects of guilt, and these effects are enormous. Modern psychiatry is discovering that guilt is enemy number ...read more

What The Lord's Prayer Teaches Us About Fellowship And Community

Contributed by Matthew Redder on May 4, 2018

In the Lords Prayer as seen in Matthew 6:9-15 Jesus not only teaches us HOW to pray but also gives us insight into how he views the community of faith.

There are many cases to be made for the community versus the isolated individual. Not only do we see a biblical theme that rebukes isolationism, but one that admonishes our need for one another. One of the strongest biblical arguments for the community comes from the Lord’s prayer as seen in ...read more
