     | 7,141 views

    Jesus is the Foundation of the Christian life. Upon that foundation there are three key pillars that enable to live the abundant life that Christ wants for us: God's Word, God's love and Grace, and our active engagement in doing the work of God.

     | 7,558 views

    King David shows two sides to himself: the compassionate side shown to Saul and the petulant attitude shown to Nabal. It shows that we can all be saints one day and sinners the next!
