A Rational Defense Of The Christian Faith

Contributed by John Gaston on May 2, 2025

This is the first in a series of messages on apologetics. This segment deals with how, as scientific discoveries continue, evidence for God's existence has grown stronger, not weaker. Science, done right, points to God.

Spirituality Series

Contributed by Robert Butler on Nov 7, 2024

Spirituality is where fear and faith collide. Escaping the trap of spirituality means admitting our limitations, recognizing the call and walking in obedience in spite of our fear.

We continue our series of “Escape” by looking at another area that keeps us from experiencing the freedom Jesus’ coming and rising offer us. The last few weeks we have spoken about escaping bad decisions, the shame/guilt that accompanies them and even trading religion for relationships. This week ...read more

At The Poverty Line Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022

Being financially secure, being well educated, having the respect and admiration of your neighbors, none of those get you credit in God’s kingdom. We’re all charity cases there.
