    Part 5 of our Fracture series looks at the barrier of favoritism. We tackle what the bible has to say about social and class warfare and how we need to keep this out of the church.

    Fracture Part 5- “Member’s Only” Pastor Ryan Akers I am excited about this message today.

    James dealt with partiality and prejudice in the early church, revealing such attitudes were sinful. The divide in our nation continues to grow, and we must check our attitudes with Scripture. Prejudice will not exist with genuine love.

The level of turmoil we face today has not been experienced since the 1960’s. While the racial divide seems to be growing at an alarming rate, the ...read more
