    I used this sermon in my series of studying the doctrine of the Nazarene Church, however, I don’t focus much on the doctrine part. I decided to focus more on the encouragement of the Christians to be the Church that God desires us to be.

Some people think that what we do or don’t do with our bodies during worship doesn’t really matter, but that’s just not true. - Ex. Your kid does ...read more
