Why I Don’t Drink Any Alcohol (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Feb 6, 2023

Should a Christian drink alcohol in moderation? What is "the whole counsel of God" concerning wine and alcoholic drinks? How does a believer make a scriptural "Risk Assessment" and wise choices about drinking alcohol? This message explores those issues.

We will step into a controversial subject this morning.

As the cop went up to the car he immediately got a strong smell of ...read more
