Do You Want The Church To Grow?

Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Jan 20, 2020

This is a sermon on evangelism that is tied to Jesus's call to the apostle Andrew. Andrew 1) grows in discipleship and 2) grows the church. The sermon tells people that they can be excited and happy about their faith, and share it with other people.

Christ The King

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 11, 2018
