We Are Made Righteous By Faith (Second Sunday Of Lent, March 5, 2023)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 3, 2023

How would you like to take a test that had a different rule for success? Instead of so many points for an “A”, so many for a “B” and so on, the success of the test would be based on an “all or nothing rule”. So you would have to get a 100% to pass on every test every single day.

WE ARE MADE RIGHTEOUS BY FAITH Text: Romans 4:1-5, 13-17 Romans 4:1-5  What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter?  (2)  If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God. ...read more

Wanting What You Get Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Jun 29, 2022

He tried to be patient and gracious, but the noise and crowded conditions wore him down. In desperation, he consulted the village wise man. “Do you have a rooster?” asked the wise ...read more

What Is Your Impact

Contributed by Jim Drake on Apr 2, 2007

Most Christians today only share the Gospel among those with whom they are comfortable, which will result in only a relative few being reached for Christ. A few Christians today step out of their comfort zone and share the Gospel with those who are diffe
