    We are free in Christ, yes, but how is that freedom to be used? How can it be abused?

    1 Corinthians 10:1-5 Spirituality 1/25/04 D. Marion Clark Introduction Let’s review the issue being addressed.

    Spirituality is where fear and faith collide. Escaping the trap of spirituality means admitting our limitations, recognizing the call and walking in obedience in spite of our fear.

    We continue our series of “Escape” by looking at another area that keeps us from experiencing the freedom Jesus’ coming and rising offer us. The last few weeks we have spoken about escaping bad decisions, the shame/guilt that accompanies them and even trading religion for relationships. This week ...read more

For example, people often say a picture is worth a thousand words. This expression immediately brings up the image that a picture can reveal more intimate details ...read more

    Allow me to begin with a cute illustration. “The six-year-old grandson of Ruth Kirby told his mother that he had been baptized.
