    How to Living Right Romans 12:1-3 6-28-09 I begin this message today with an assumption. My assumption is this: Deep in the heart of every Christian is the desire to live right before God. I can’t imagine someone who is truly born again not wanting to please God. When the cry “Abba Father” comes ...read more

     | 14,134 views

    America has had its ups and downs politically. But the underlying issue Christians must consider is the condition of the church and particularly their own spiritual state. This message applies 2 Chron. 7:14 as a solution.

    2 Chron. 7:13-14 5/3/15 The times we live in are significantly affected by two events in our recent history: (1) 9/11 in 2001 and (2) the economic bust in 2008.
