Passing On The Faith

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 16, 2014

Moses reiterated God's commands and recalled the stories of God's works to the new generation. We are called to share our faith journey. Obedience to God's Word brings His blessings. Obedience is a blessing.

Pass on the faith, because that’s how we pass on God’s blessings. The best gift we can give someone is to pass on our faith, to help someone put their faith in God and walk in His ways. • This is probably the greatest and most lasting blessing we can give ...read more

Pass It On! Series

Contributed by E. True Neilson on Dec 15, 2014

Passing Through Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Aug 8, 2021

The "crisis" at the border is not a Republican or Democrat problem, a conservative or liberal, progressive or libertarian problem … it is a “human” problem … and my goal today is to get you to stop thinking of this as a political issue and start looking at it from a Christian perspective.

Roughly 250 people show up at our southern border every day in the hopes of either legally or illegally entering our country. We have a big problem. ...read more

Passing The Test Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

It was an awful ordeal Joseph put them through, but it was worth it, for Joseph learned that people can change. God knows this and that is why He is long suffering and puts up with people for a long time.
