A New Beginning Series

Contributed by David Owens on Aug 28, 2018

A New Command

Contributed by Dr. Jeffrey Dukeman on May 13, 2019

A New Heart

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Mar 19, 2018

A New Body

Contributed by Jonathan Meyer on Jan 16, 2017

This sermon is the first in a series for January 2017 called "Start Something New." Many focus on body image issues when making New Year's Resolutions. In baptism, we have "put on Christ," and God sees His perfect, sinless Son. THERE'S your new body!

It’s that time again—time to set lofty goals for yourself. Time to aim high for 2017. Time to dream that you might be one of only 8% of Americans who actually fulfill a new year’s resolution!
