Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 7, 2022

Do we come to church for what we can get or for what we can give?

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 11, 2022

Now if love is supposed to be the greatest, and it is, then why did Jesus’s preaching about love in Luke 4:21 -30 provoke those in the congregation so badly? It provoked them so badly, that they wanted to throw Him off a cliff!

Fulfilling The Prophets

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 5, 2021

Listening To Jesus

Contributed by John Dobbs on Jan 28, 2016
