In his book entitled, Love More, Sin Less, Aubrey Johnson says, “The call of the gospel is a call to love. We are summoned by God’s love to share in the fellowship of loving spirits in heaven and on earth (Philippians 2:1-2). Making a commitment to the love-based life is the best decision one can …

When Tomorrow Begins Without Me

I Want to Start A Conversation That Will Bring People To Christ, Do You?
Let’s add another tool to your toolbox… Our words can enrage or encourage. Our words matter!

Romans 10:17 says, “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of …
Is Life Fair?
This past Friday night, our high school football team’s season ended like it has ended over the last several years, with a defeat. When you lose a game during the playoffs, your season is finished.
