    Oftentimes, when we see the road ahead getting rough, we want to give up and quit. God never promised us a road of roses, but he did promise us a way to victory.

    When we are told that we must finish the race, we get excited and push harder. However, when the road gets rough, we lose encouragement. We see the potholes and the winding road and want to give up. I can relate. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 shouts it plain and clear. When we come to the knowledge of ...read more

    Humble Servant Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on Dec 10, 2008

Today’s message on humility may be the most difficult message. I’ve had to do a lot of research for this sermon and two of the books I’ve ...read more
