    Presumption

    Religion does not create a relationship with God, nor does ritual. It is refinement born of repentance that shapes that relationship. Repent, relate, and receive.

    Good morning, beloved family. Today, we're going to dive deep into a passage from the book of Amos that's as challenging as it is enlightening. We're going to take a good, hard look at the hard reality of God's justice, the fantasy of false worship, and the mighty hand of God. Now, before we read ...read more

    IT IS SAFE TO SAY THAT ALL OF US MUST DEAL WITH SIN ON A DAILY BASIS. WHAT PROBABLY SCARES US THE MOST IS NOT THAT WE CONFRONT AND DEAL WITH THE SINS OF THE WORLD, BUT HAVE TO CONTEND WITH THOSE DARK SINS THAT LOITER IN THE DEEP RECESSES OF OUR HEARTS.
