Being Reminded To Do Good

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Sep 3, 2016

How does one reach a fallen world that glorifies sin? Is their a right and wrong way to preach the Gospel? In Paul's message to Titus we find that loving people and doing good deeds is the only way to reach them.

An Eternal Weight Of Glory Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 18, 2011

We should be grateful for God’s earthly, physical blessings and protection, but we should be even more grateful for the eternal blessings he gives us.

What is the most inexpensive container you have ever put something valuable in? Money in a sock? Cigar box? God chose to place in human vessels the very presence of His Holy Spirit.
