Access To The Presence Of God Series

Scripture Or Tradition

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021

Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 7:1-13 For 2000 years, the church has been creating ordinances for the people of God to follow.

Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 8, 2025

As a church on mission this summer we want to be going, growing, loving, and inviting. When I say, inviting, I’m talking about a church that welcomes others, just like Jesus had welcomed us into His family for the glory of God (Rom 15:7).

Think about the power of an invitation. While I was growing up my parents would, many times, invite some of the neighborhood kids over for lunch or dinner or to celebrate the holidays with us. My parents always made room at the table. I had no idea at the time but years later they told me that ...read more
