The Road To Rest

Contributed by Terry Hovey on Feb 19, 2025

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Jan 26, 2025

The Bible teaches that only those who put their faith in Jesus Christ, repent of their sins, love and obey God's commandments, and persevere in their faith will inherit eternal life.

Less Is More

Contributed by Michael Bates on Sep 5, 2023

Prosperity gospel is a very popular Christian movement today. It states that God will always bless you with good health and material wealth if you ask Him. That's FALSE!! Good health is NOT guaranteed and material wealth will NEVER get you into heaven.

One of the largest and more popular movements in the last 30+ years in the Christian Church is a form of theology called prosperity gospel. Let’s define what it is first. According to the website, Wikipedia; prosperity theology is a religious belief among some Protestant Christians that financial ...read more

Are You Good Enough?

I have entitled our message this morning “Are You Good Enough?” And the question for us to consider today is this: “Is anyone good enough to go to heaven?” An article from the Los Angeles Times says, “An overwhelming majority of Americans continue to believe that there is life after death and ...read more
