Enthusiastic Living Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 29, 2003

The difference between living and existing can often be traced to one’s philosophy of life. The God-given philosophy of life involves many aspects, but today I’d like to summarize part of that philosphy through three "Remember" statements.

Dying To Live Series

Contributed by Wes Richard on Mar 29, 2004

Because Christ has died and we have died with him, sin no longer has the power to do us in. But, if we open the door, sin can still hurt us.
