What Are You Doing In Sodom? Series

Contributed by Paul Barreca on Feb 19, 2012

Sodom represents the allurment of the world. It proved deadly for Lot, and it will just as surely destroy our lives if we venture close to the world.

Speak Lord, I Am Listening

Contributed by Terry Barnhill on Jan 17, 2012

Today we’ll be reflecting on how important “listening” is when it comes to our relationship with God and to what the Corinthians were not hearing.

Contributed by David Owens on Apr 8, 2019

The gospel is the good news of Jesus that is the antidote of the bad news of God's wrath and judgment against sin. In Romans 1:18-32, Paul discusses why God's wrath is justified, and what happens to humanity when they reject God and God gives them up.

He roared, “I warn you, that there will be weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth!” 3. An older woman passing ...read more
