Contributed by Richard Tow on Aug 17, 2024

Message introduces a series examining the Gifts of the Spirit. In the first half, the series entitled Foundations for Worship is reviewed, teaching the relational nature of the gifts. In the second half, God's purpose for the gifts is explained.

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Nov 12, 2023

How did we get to a point where there are those that sit in a church who don’t believe what is necessary to be saved, let alone what it is to be a true Christian? Well, this is a problem of leadership.

I always try to make the distinction between what the Bible calls a church, and what we think a church is…the Bible speaks of the church as the collected body of true believers in Christ Jesus, while we think the church is a building like this and all the people contained within it. This I say so ...read more
