    Following Jesus can be difficult, but all who choose this path will be greatly rewarded in the end.

    Many people’s attitude about following Christ is “What can I get?” not “What can I give?” They view Christianity as only a free ticket to heaven. But what did Jesus teach about discipleship? Read Matthew 8:34-38. “If anyone would come after me” means “If anyone wants to be my disciple (in other ...read more

    What is sin? God calls us away from a life of sin and darkness but instead to live in the light, as He is in the light.

    This week I wanted to start off briefly answering the question, why study the Bible?

    This sermon attempts to communicate that living by the law will not make you right with God rather you must be right to live right and you are made right by receiving righteousness from God whether Jew or Gentile.

    Living by the law sounds good doesn’t it? Most of us Americans are law abiding citizens, wouldn’t you say? That is, until you stop and think about how the jails of our nation are over crowded and how the court system is back logged with cases. I was talking with a lady one day who had been ...read more
