Outside Of The Box

Contributed by John Telgren on Feb 11, 2017

The Bible is our standard and is what defines our freedoms and boundaries. It is important to spend generous amounts of time in the word in order to grow in knowing God and how God want us to serve him

The Straight Shootin’ Preacher Series

Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Aug 24, 2014

Many preachers today don’t preach the Gospel straight. In his 2nd great sermon, Peter "preached it straight" to the Jews of Jerusalem who had rejected Jesus as their Messiah and Savior. This sermon dissects Peter's sermon and mines it for Gospel truths.
