The Very Real Danger Of Spiritual Neglect Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Jan 1, 2021

The issue of Christians who fall away from the faith was present in the New Testament, even as it is today. How can we prevent this from happening, and be vigilant against growing weary of following Christ ourselves?

Today we begin a new message series from the Book of Hebrews which I’ve entitled “The Faith that Endures.” It’s a sobering book because it addresses a sobering topic—an issue that I know that I would prefer not to admit that it exists. It addresses the issue of Christians who are tempted to fall ...read more

The Use Of Spiritual Gifts, Focusing On Tongues

Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 6, 2022
