  • In Pursuit Of Peace Series

    Contributed by Mitchell Skelton on Apr 25, 2006
    based on 30 ratings

    I am firmly convinced that more than a timeless letter about the gospel of Christ, Paul wrote Romans as an effort to unify a church on its way toward division. Romans 14 is the climax of that effort.

  • Live Until You Die, Die Until You Live

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 23, 2009
    based on 15 ratings
     | 8,065 views

    We admire those who pursue life goals as long as they can; but our calling is to die to self. It will mean a change of values and of attitudes, but it will give us true life.

There’s a strong compulsion in us to extract all the value and the vitality we can get out from ...read more
