What I Believe

Contributed by Grant Adams on Mar 30, 2023

In a world that says, everyone's truth is subjective. Today is the day to stand up for what we believe. My belief is grounded in God's word.

Someone once said to me, “Just exactly what does your church believe? What do you believe? No one could reach on all we believe in one service, but I want us to ...read more

Not What I Expected

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Mar 31, 2023

I Choose To Be A Loyalist

Contributed by Craig Benner on Sep 19, 2023

Perserverance is not as common as it once was. Society has made it too easy to quit, change course, or just make up an excuse for not following through. God is still looking for loyalists.

Not looking for a place or a reason to quit or retreat. It is less and less atractive today. Everyone is willing to give a pass and accept ...read more
