    This is the final message in a series over Romans 6-11. The series examines how we now live under God's grace. This message examines Paul's doxology in Romans 11.

    Introduction: There are some things that words cannot describe. Many of these things we attempt to describe and our words fail to do it justice. God is one such thing.

    If you had been standing there in that first Palm Sunday crowd as Jesus entered Jerusalem riding on a donkey, what would you have heard? I would ask you to close your eyes to imagine it, but that’s kind of the kiss of death for a sermon, so keep your eyes open and imagine it. What would you have ...read more

Cyber Monday and Cyber week are finished. This week, we had our first real taste of winter and Minnesota weather ...read more
