    Many people have been shackeled by their own sins, wrongdoings, and misdeeds.

    Many people are shackled by sin. We’ve done things we shouldn’t have done. We’ve wronged people and never made things right. We even see sin in others, but can’t see our own sin. Some people are conniving, manipulating, and blinded by their own faults. There’s a soap opera that reveals a lot ...read more

    FINAL THOUGHTS FOR A PRESSURED CHURCH INTRODUCTION: For everything we read about the Corinthian Church, and everything Paul attempts to teach this same church, for the most part we are left with a church struggling to identify itself to each other and in its community.
