Contributed by Scott Maze on Feb 22, 2023

Kamran was a violent man who sold drugs & weapons in Iran. A friend gave him a New Testament, & for 5 consecutive days, Kamran devoured it. He soon gave his life to Christ. Where Kamran used to sell drugs and weapons, a church now met in his home.

This is the opening sermon in the series and explores Psalm 1 and the implications for Christians today.

We are beginning a new series called Sermon in the Psalms. What is nice about the Psalms is they lend themselves very well to what is called topical preaching.

The Wicked And Righteous Contrasted Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Nov 18, 2022
