    Contributed by Gregory Norton on Nov 27, 2011
     | 4,667 views

    We believe that salvation is for everyone who calls on the name of the Lord.

    To be an effective Church we must be pliable clay in God's hand.

    "God's Work of Art" Jeremiah 18:1-11 I have entitled this sermon, "God's Work of Art," but I am unsure as to whether this is an appropriate title or not. Let's see where we go from here, and perhaps you can let me know if I gave this sermon a proper name. Nowadays, pottery-making is an art ...read more

    Generosity is at the core of a disciple's life. Jesus calls us to generous living, and generosity begins with our money.

    Do we believe it’s possible to live a generous life? Do we believe it’s important to live a generous life? Do we believe it’s necessary to live a generous life? We’ve spent the last four weeks reflecting on how to live generously in every respect of discipleship as United Methodists—our prayers, ...read more

    Does the church undervalue the practice of foot washing? Should it be an ordinance or a sacrament

    Is Foot Washing a Sacrament? John 13:1-17 Introduction Foot washing has been erratically performed by the church throughout the ages. Different groups hold to divergent opinions of it.

     | 6,135 views
