Have You Forgiven Your Brethren? Series

Contributed by Alis Cerrahyan on Jun 22, 2019

God, in his infinite mercy, never disconnected from his creation. The disconnect came into play due to our disobedience; whether we prefer to blame Adam for the fall of mankind or ourselves since we manage to come up with a few poor choices here and there. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have ...read more

I heard about a church that recently began offering “gluten-free” bread for the Lord’s Supper. 1. It has been very well received, but its initial introduction didn’t go so well. 2.
