Contributed by Jake Kircher on Jul 3, 2007

Too often, young people are told that they aren’t good enough, experienced enough, or educated enough. Meanwhile, talent and gifts are going unused.

Tonight, I want to start right off by jumping into the Word and looking at a passage about a young boy being used by God in a big way.

The Unity Of One Gospel Series

Contributed by Peter Loughman on Sep 22, 2008

Christians have struggled with the Gospel and the effects of culture since the very beginning. Today ...read more

Kingdom Of Heaven (Part 6) Series

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Aug 31, 2015
