    This sermon is a part of our What We Believe series and looks at the doctrine of repentance. It looks at repentance's two ingredients , and that while repentance isn't easy, it is available and well worth the price because of the blessings it brings.

    When I read the first chapter of Genesis, I do not see the development of an ancient myth or legend. I do not see the fruit of an overactive imagination of an anonymous sage trying to explain to his "backward" clan or tribe of how they came to be. I do not see any collection of ...read more

    In everything that we say or do, does God have the priority, or do we give God the same emphasis as we do the spare tire? (Only when needed!)
