Justification By Faith Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on May 25, 2014

Introduction: One thing we can all agree on: People rarely agree! Even in the early church there was conflict; and while we’d prefer unity among believers, disputes happen. In an awkward moment Peter and Paul were at odds. Paul confronted the head of the church to his face…because ...read more

A Prayer For God’s Will

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022

When it comes to praying for God’s will, we often find ourselves at a loss for words. Perhaps, the way to make the greatest impact is to ask for a blessing; to pray for the spiritual and material resources we need to enlarge the kingdom.

But when it comes to praying for God’s ...read more
