The Church At Ephesus Series

Contributed by David Taylor on Apr 26, 2003

The Lord had three things to commend this church for, but the rebuke brought focus to the very real problem of loosing your love for Christ.

As I believe the Lord is leading, it is imperative for us to consider exactly what type of church Jesus desires to have.

Knowing God Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jul 5, 2010

We all "know" there’s a God, but how can we come to know him.
