So, the passage of Scripture that we will use today comes from 1 Peter 3:8-14. It is as ...read more

    Total surrender Selected Scripture Some of the context of this sermon was gleaned from ideas and illustrations found on SermonCentral. Last week we looked at what it means when we say God bless you and wither we want God blessing or a bailout of what we are going through. This morning, ...read more

    If you change the word “Gentiles” in the first verse of today’s passage to “Americans” the whole lesson moves right into our own situation. They are practically a mirror of contemporary society. Listen to this: “[Americans] are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God ...read more
