    I suspect all of us can identify a Barnabas or two in our past who gave us a second chance. Maybe it was a parent or a relative or a teacher or a church leader or a close friend. Christianity means second chances.

It is something of an outline of today’s message, but it is also a starter kit for your vision of ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,146 views

    It is easier to be smug than satisfied, to be correct than compassionate, to be religious than real. What we need to do is to cry, "Lord forgive my sin."

    The surest formula for unhappiness is have to be right, all of the time.

It’s an awesome burden ...read more
