New Year Sermon: Life Of Peter

Contributed by Sunitha Justin on Dec 30, 2018

Abundant Grace

Contributed by Mark Lindsey on Aug 29, 2022

Often, we, like the Corinthian believers, fail to remember the abundant grace which has been given to us through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We look more like the culture around us than the nature of Christ within us.
