    Oliver Cromwell asked for a portrait “warts and all.” Paul writes 1 Corinthians the same way—seeing the flaws but starting with grace. In 1:1–9 we’ll see our called identity and God’s faithfulness to sustain us.

Oliver Cromwell It’s a story of Oliver Cromwell. If you’re unaware of who he is, I’ll give you an extremely brief summary: he was a political ...read more

    James describes "pure religion" in very practical terms that are easy to understand.

    Pure Religion James 1:19-27 What is religion? Isn’t it amazing how we can use a word every day of our life and have no idea what it means? “Religion” is one of those words.

He called it ‘The 48 laws of Power’. Here are some of his 48 laws: Never put too much trust in friends; learn how to use enemies. ...read more
