Sermon # 10 - The Things God Detests Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 2, 2024

There are certain pagan practices that God detests, and we are cautioned to not dabble with them. Our protection comes from God alone, and we must be watchful so that we are not deceived by Satan’s cunning ploys.

As the people of Israel progressed towards the Promised Land, the King of Moab out of fear and envy wanted to curse the Israelites, and thereby hoped that he could hinder their advancements.

Strong Enough To Serve

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 30, 2025

Every now and then, we glimpse the beauty of someone who is both strong and gentle—someone who knows exactly ...read more
