    The Price For Our Call To Grace

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 10, 2018
     | 3,433 views

    Suffering that comes from bad human choices is the price we all pay for the call and grace to be images of God.

    Fifth Sunday of Lent 2018 Back when I was teaching religion every school day, two questions kept rising in the minds of students, and occasionally were voiced. What brought the first to mind recently were the several multiple murders we have heard about in Florida, in Las Vegas and just last week ...read more

    Human Body Indulgences Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Sep 21, 2015
     | 6,288 views

    Paul explains how the human body is not designed for desires and urges but to be a member of Christ. The human body is designed to be the temple of the Holy Spirit.

    The human body is abused more than any other single thing on earth. Man has developed things that really do nothing but kill the human body. On the other hand, little is spent on saving and nurturing the human body. The passage tonight deals with this problem. It is God’s case against the ...read more

    Just What Does "taken Up" Mean For Jesus?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 20, 2022
     | 1,670 views
