    I wanted to speak to you today about "The Need for Walls" If you think about everywhere, you go whether it be home, work, church, to a store, or even the vehicle you came here in this morning they are all enclosed by some form of walls for shelter and protection.

The Great Wall was built over a period of 2,300 years! It is the longest man-made structure in the history of the world and has a ...read more

    After David's confession of his sin, he asks God to purify and renew him.

    The cross is such an ironic symbol. In context, 2000 years ago, a cross was a horrible instrument of torture and death, it was feared and reviled, it was a punishment so dehumanizing that it was to be a major deterrent to crime, and those sentenced to death on a cross were humiliated and debased. ...read more
