     | 3,052 views

    We did to have excuses when the going gets tough. Jesus' call is for total commitment. All Scripture references are from the NASB.

     | 8,567 views

    Great New Year's message. The parable of the fruitless fig tree being given one more year to produce fruit probably parallels many Christians, who's lives are fruitless. Will we respond to God's reprieve by changing how we're living?
