Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 24, 2016

Many are skeptical of the church and the Gospel. In times of difficulty, we must abide in the truth, rather than shying away from it. The faith we have in Christ will sustain us in times of need. We must be faithful to proclaim Jesus to others.

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.

Your salvation has three stages: past, present, and future. The theological terms are justification, sanctification, and glorification. The moment you ...read more

The importance of sharing Jesus with others

I) The Gospel Is For Everyone! Let's be honest, folks. How often do you share your faith with others? To me, I find it to be the highest privilege to carry the gospel to the unsaved.
