    This continues a series on the book of Romans. An extreme gift of grace calls for an extreme response. Paul calls us to love our enemies. Sometimes God’s grace calls us to places we’d rather not go.

    This summer we have been traveling the Roman Road Of Salvation with Paul. We began by hearing that there is nothing we can do to earn God’s grace. We will never merit the love God has for us. No matter how good we are, or how bad we can be, God still loves us. Our wrong doings separates us from ...read more
