    In this sermon we examine what it means to worship God with all of our lives, or, to state it slightly differently, to show what it means to do all to the glory of God.

    Scripture For the next three Sundays, I plan to preach on the subject of worship.

If we are going to learn to be more forgiving and to forgive others, we need to first know that Jesus has forgiven us. When I was younger, I remember running ...read more
