    Christ calls His followers to be different. This morning I would challenge those of you who have entered the gate and are standing on the narrow road to travel the road and to dare to be different.

    Any suffering for Christ’s sake is a small price to pay for the gracious benefits received because of that suffering.

    1. Because it hurts so much and is so tough, there is the thought throughout the church today that: • ‘WE SHOULDN’T HAVE TO SUFFER’. • We’re Christians. We live in the United States. • We’re should be immune to suffering. We’re blessed! IT’S TRUE: we do live in an incredible time in history. • We ...read more

    This is the second sermon in a series of four on Christian marriage which deals with Getting at the Heart of God’s Plan, Being Mutually Submissive as well as Leaving and Cleaving - from an “exchanged life’ perspective.”

    It doesn’t take a social scientist to figure out that marriage today is in trouble. Adultery, divorce, depression, alcoholism, work-alcoholism, and a host of other “isms” have reached epidemic proportions. It may have been Benjamin Franklin who said, “A disease is never brought under control ...read more
