Here Is A Trustworthy Saying

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jan 17, 2018

Please open your Bibles to 2 Timothy 2:1-13 which we will read in a few minutes. 1st and 2nd Timothy and Titus are letters written to specific ...read more

Parable Of The Sower

Contributed by Paul Davidson on Jan 26, 2021

I remember sitting, my face wet with tears, as I prayed for God to rescue me and change the soil of my heart into rich, fertile soil. I was tired of just pretending to be a Christian. I no longer wanted to be the person I had become. I surrendered my life to Jesus... and I was forever changed!
