Sermons on Worthy Living:

From The Street Where You Live To The Faraway Towns

Contributed by Mary Erickson on Feb 8, 2021

What God’s Love Do In Our Lives

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 26, 2022

In Chicago a few years ago a little boy walked to Sunday school every Sunday. When his parents moved to another part of the city the little boy still attended the same Sunday school, although it meant a longer distance to walk.

He said, “I attend my church because they love a fellow over there.” If only we could convince the world that we loved them there would be fewer empty pews in our churches. A TRUE DEFINITION OF LOVE. ...read more
