Love On The Cross Series

A King Came From A Cave

This is just a good introduction to a Christmas sermon that can be taken so many different directions. I hope it blesses and inspires you.

Luke 2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

Romans 1:18-32 Series

Contributed by George Mclaughlin Jr. on Oct 9, 2009

The main point of this text (vv. 18-32) is that Paul was eager to preach the gospel (to those who were in Rome) because of the hopelessly determined disposition of mankind, to ignore God. We need to know that God reacts very strongly against those who sup

Leave The Old Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Aug 6, 2020

The worldly life is 1) Intellectually futile (Ephesians 4:17), 2) Ignorant of God’s truth (Ephesians 4:18), 3) Spiritually and morally callused (Ephesians 4:19a), and 4) Depraved in mind (Ephesians 4:19b).

Ephesians 4:17-19 [17] Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds.
