Love Affirmed

Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 12, 2017

Message explores God's love for His people and the stability that comes into our lives through a revelation of His love.

Jeremiah 31:3-4 1-25-15 I want to take as our subject today, the Love of God. A revelation of God’s love is foundational to everything.

What Do You Crave? What Does God Crave? (James 4:1-10) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jul 5, 2022

Today's passage, James 4:1-10, was a real struggle for me at first. These verses, read as a whole, read as a response to a specific problem within the church, really don't make sense within the context of Western, white, evangelical Christianity. The way we tend to view the church, and ...read more

When Your Problems Are Big And Your God Is Small Series

Contributed by Rick Duncan on Feb 10, 2003

In this message, we learn how even evangelicals can be guilty of violating the 2nd commandment. When we do, we minimize God and magnify our problems.
