     | 4,608 views

    Though salvation is free, when you accept Jesus as Lord, God does not promise the road will be easy. What He does promise is that He will not give us more than we can bear, and that He will be with us always!

    What does it cost? That is a question we often ask when purchasing something.

    We all know the cost of discipleship is high, but what is discipleship, and more importantly, do we, as a Christians have a choice but to be disciples? True discipleship is to embrace it, to enjoy it, and live for it because we want to.

    Jesus died when He wasn't guilty - for us when we were guilty. The price of freedom, both civil and spiritual, is innocent blood

    Innocent Blood Mark 15:15-41 • As we have worked our way through the gospel of Mark, we have learned many things. It has been more than a little interesting how we have “stumbled” on to the perfect text for the perfect day. It is no accident that we are where we are today! ...read more

    Peter's desire to walk on water to be with Jesus is certainly a good thing, but he is unprepared for the consequences of this big step of faith. How do we handle headwinds and the waves that will certainly come in this life of faith?
