    July 1989. When others disappoint us, it is often because they do not meet our expectations, and anger is natural. God feels that about us. But God allows us to reap the consequences of our sin in Christ’s cross takes into Himself that burden and transf

    Here is a short sermon that encourages us as a Christian to have a place Gethsemane, a time where we spend time with God to get the strength to do His Will. Jesus spent time in Gethsemane to get a hold of the Father, how much more should we.

Whether we are sons of God on our way to an eternity with our Father, or whether we are sons of Adam ...read more
