    Why God’s Word Matters Series

    Contributed by Pat Damiani on Sep 13, 2011
     | 6,810 views

    Because God’s Word mattered to Jesus, it should matter to us and we should do everything we can to live according to the principles we find there.

    Over the years, I’ve found that one of the issues that Christ followers struggle with the most is how we are to apply the Old Testament in our lives.

Israel–the northern Kingdom after the breakup of David’s kingdom after the terrible mess Solomon left–was such an area. A successful ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,780 views

    “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth…” This sermon will acknowledge and celebrate creation as an act of God and contrast it from the modern secularist’ view of evolutionary process. Moreover, it will refute evolutionary process as God

    The Creation vs. Evolution debate is much older than most people are aware of - and has always been more about philosophy and religion than Science. 1In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1 "For there are those who, giving the name of atoms to certain imperishable and ...read more
