Sermons on Ignore:

Today, If You Hear His Voice . . . Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Feb 1, 2021

The possibility of falling away from Christ is greater than most of us think--no one is entirely immune from this awful outcome. It all begins with how we come to respond to God's voice, when we know He has spoken to us, and even in small things, choose to ignore Him.

One of the great challenges of the pastoral profession is discerning who to help among those who are in evident financial need, and when to help them, and then how much to help them.

The Things People Say About Jesus Series
