    Truth And Consequences Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jun 26, 2023
     | 3,075 views

    John the Baptizer experienced severe consequences for standing for God's truth. In this interlude in Mark's Gospel we learn the lesson that discipleship is costly and we learn about people's different reactions to the truth.

    A. How many of you remember the show “Truth or Consequences”? 1. Anyone who remembers the show is either old or is a radio and TV history buff. 2. “Truth or Consequences” was a long-running wild and wacky game show. 3. It was on the radio from 1940 to 1957 and was on TV from 1950 to ...read more

    An Easter message on the hope that Jesus brings to our lives.

    When we talk about God, we can use a number of words to describe Him. He is the God of Love. The God of Joy. The God of Mercy.

    There is a reason why in the chorus of “Days of Elijah” that the phrase “It’s the year of Jubilee” happens in an entire chorus focusing on Jesus Christ. "Jubilee" is about Jesus.
