    I’m sure we’re all fairly familiar with this scene—a group of shepherds are in the field quietly minding their own businesses when an angel appears to them. *The Angels* We don’t know the name of this angel. However, the only angel to be named in the gospels in connection with the birth of Jesus ...read more

    The sermon’s aim is to push persons to look at the concept of family and to assess where one is as it relates to family interaction.

    FORGIVENESS WITH GOD Acts 5:30-31 INTRO. Paul said, "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God."
