    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,226 views

    The greatest commandment is to love God, and the second is to love people. What does it mean to truly love God with all our heart?

    It is not easy to sum up all the commandments that govern life in one or two sentences, but Jesus did it. It is amazing! Think about it. If you get these commands right, you’ll get the rest right. Jesus says (in Matthew’s version), “All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” ...read more

  • "For The Glory Of God" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Oct 30, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 11,591 views

    When Martin Luther hung his writings on the door of the church in Wittenberg, 500 years ago, everything in the church changed. This gave man a renewed purpose. Now all that we do is for the glory of God. It is all for God and God alone.

    “For the glory of God” It has been said that history repeats itself. Now I believe that to a point but I think that it is more accurate to say that people repeat the same mistakes in the same choices and the same decisions others have made before them and that’s why history repeats itself. Because ...read more

    Genesis 1:1 is simple, short, yet profound. (I will lean on Core 52 resources during this series; I also want to thank Dan Raymond, who is a friend of mine, for some of his resource help. James E Smith's book on the Pentateuch was helpful in this message)
