Jesus is the Foundation of the Christian life. Upon that foundation there are three key pillars that enable to live the abundant life that Christ wants for us: God's Word, God's love and Grace, and our active engagement in doing the work of God.

Today we want to take an opportunity to think about strengthening and making firm the foundation of our lives. The parable that was just read talks about the importance of building on a sure foundation.

Cherry-Picking The Word Of God

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 8, 2025

We must approach the Bible without preconceived ideas. We should let it speak for itself. The Holy Spirit never contradicts Himself. If a scripture contradicts our theology, our theology is probably wrong. As Jesus said, "The scripture cannot be broken."

Is The Bible Really God's Word? Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Jan 24, 2013

Research tells us that about 65% of protestant Christians believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God. Depending how you look at that it may seem high or low to you. To me it’s cause for concern because a full 35% of professing Christians are not s
