    This message looks at the cup (container) and the wine (content). The wine is still wine, no matter what container it’s in. Today's culture has a new cup; yet the content (gospel message) in the container can still be the same.

My wife, on the other hand, likes to have a little dainty china cup, with a handle just big enough to fit her finger through. Ask either one of us to ...read more

A verse for those times when we are attempting the difficult, the improbable, and the impossible. But for too many people, it is more a motivational statement ...read more
