How we are to accept those that don't always fit into our mold of Christianity
3 Three B’s of Christianity and how they get mixed up. In the last few weeks the Lord has led us through the difference between the old and the new covenant and how the old was a covenant based on performance. Lots of do’s and don’ts. Most people don’t like to be told what to do. It robs them of ...read more
After denying Jesus three times, Peter must have felt that Jesus would want nothing more to do with him, but on resurrection morning Peter received two wonderful surprises that told him he couldn't be more wrong about that.
Introduction: A. One day an attorney gathered the entire family for the reading of the will of their wealthy relative. 1.

To become mothers of Christ, we must internalize and make Mary's prayer our own: "Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word" (Luke 1:38).
The spiritual motherhood of Christ is an exalted state attained by embracing a resounding "yes" to God, even in the face of seemingly impossible demands, echoing the divine calling that turned Mary into a virgin mother. To become mothers of Christ, we must internalize and make Mary's ...read more
