Confronting Idolatry (Acts 17)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Sep 5, 2025

Do we have our own idolatry that needs to be confronted?

Can we enter a pagan, idolatrous culture and find some who will listen to the Gospel? Is our modern materialism also idolatry? Do we verify what is preached by studying the scriptures?

The Deceitfulness Of Sin. Series

Contributed by Christina Milanderb on May 18, 2024

The old sin nature was crucified and died with Christ. Anything contrary to who we are now in Christ Scripture calls 'deceit' and must be resisted only by Jesus's indwelling grace.

Awhile ago The Lord peeled back the causes of the internal struggles we face at times to live a godly life and it really opened my eyes, I pray it opens yours as well. In James 3, a clear distinction is made between a "Wisdom from above" and that is from God, and a "wisdom from ...read more
