Stepping Into The Grace Of God.

Contributed by Bola Folakemi Praise on Jun 29, 2020

What is grace? Grace is an unmerited favour; it is kindness from God that we do not deserve. We enjoy God’s grace because He is a merciful God.

Contributed by Steve Malone on Jun 30, 2020

Sunny Side Sermon V: Christian Battle Armor - What A Shame Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Jul 1, 2020

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 12, 2020

What make a church successful? Is it lots of money? A great preacher? Great outreach programs and internal programming? Oddly enough, the early church didn't have that - and yet they turned the world upside down. What did the early church have that made the difference?

Flip Wilson was a popular black comedian several years ago, and among the routines he did were skits about a Preacher at the “What’s Happening Now Church.” One of his skits went like this: He’d shout out: "If this church is going to serve God it’s got to get down on its knees and crawl!!!” ...read more
