    Satan has no problem with a church that has smoke going up the chimney, as long as there’s no fire in the furnace. If the church isn’t careful, its ministry can become mere methods and mechanics, performed legalistically, without love for Christ.

At the time this letter was penned, the church of Ephesus was a thriving body of believers. Times were ...read more

    The intent of my message is not to elevate the story of Mary to the point of glorifying her in any way. We try not to glorify people around here much. Mary was highly favored , not highly exalted. We are here to glorify Jesus.
