    Children Of Light

    Contributed by Ed Lu on Aug 10, 2019
     | 4,016 views

    Entitlement becomes our constant companion to rationalize what’s right is wrong and unless I am the beneficiary of love, peace and joy then something is terribly wrong with the Church.

    Children of Light (John 12:35-36) Many expect to be given God than they are to search for God. They want to be handed all the blessings of peace, prosperity, and providence which somehow they think God represents but they fall short of diligently seeking Him. That if I do what the pastor ...read more

    Why wouldn’t people love their neighbors? And do I have to love myself before I can show this kind of love to others?

    Today is our Friend Sunday, and many of you invited your neighbors to worship with you this morning. So, this morning I thought I’d give you a little quiz on neighbors.

    In these verses Jesus teaches us that there is a wrong way and a right way to pray.
