    Many people blindly follow their GPS and have no clue as to whether or not they are on the right road. Many self professing "Christians" are traveling the "broad way" and think they belong to Jesus, yet they missed the narrow road of true salvation.

    God’s Positioning System or GPS. Our current Sermon Series. First, a few weeks ago, we asked the question: "Do you know where you are?" Do we know your location? Not your position on Earth, but in relationship to God? After Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, God came walking through the ...read more
