And righteousness stands afar off;
For truth is fallen in the street,
And equity cannot enter. Isaiah 59:14

Sunday June 23 - Not Ashamed
Audio - Not Ashamed
Recently a celebrity said he did not want to be known as a Christian, because there is too much baggage with calling yourself a Christian. Christians must rejoice in Christ and live in a way that glorifies His name.

When our hearts break and tragedy strikes, we desperately need the help of God to comfort and strengthen us. In tragic times, God has not abandoned or forgotten us. God doesn’t take away every pain, but He helps us through it to become better people.

The heart is the window of the soul. When the heart becomes hardened or enslaved to sin, we need a new heart that can love God and serve Him. Many people today need a change of heart, and the path to that change is knowing God.

Sunday May 12 - For Me Personally
Audio - For Me Personally
Our society is in a state of moral confusion because people tend to regard sin as relative to a person’s beliefs. They say, “You might think this is wrong, but for me personally I think this behavior is okay.” Have we forgotten what God thinks?

Since God is the source of all our blessings, we need to know whom God considers blessed. The world’s values and behaviors may seem to benefit people in this life, but God’s values bless a man forever.

Many people think it doesn’t matter what you believe, but this notion contains a very low view of truth. The Lord wants us to know the truth and to love the truth. We must learn to buy the truth and not sell it.
