Got Faith?

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Aug 7, 2016

Sometimes God's plans are so much greater than our plans that all we can do is keep hoping, keep putting our faith in the One who always works for our good and his glory. As we cultivate a relationship with Christ, we build our faith muscles.

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 31, 2016

Committed To Promoting The Gospel Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 28, 2016

Even though Paul was in bonds, he rejoiced that the Gospel continued to be preached. He refused to allow his circumstances create despair. We too must seek every opportunity to share our faith, while rejoicing for others who are committed as well.

Committed to Promoting the Gospel Philippians 1: 12-18 As one reads the opening verses of this letter, it is not immediately evident that Paul was bound in prison. His joy and positive attitude conceal the difficulties he faced daily. Although he was not free to move about within society, Paul ...read more

Behavior Becoming Of Citizens Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 12, 2016

The church faced difficulty within a culture loyal to Rome. While they were subject to Roman authority, their primary responsibility was to the Sovereign Lord. We are citizens of two worlds, and our allegiance belongs to Christ. We must always honor Him.

Behavior becoming of Citizens Philippians 1: 27-30 As Paul sought to conclude the first thoughts of his gracious letter, apparently he was reminded of the intense struggle the church in Philippi faced.
