We had a wonderful day yesterday at church. We began with a combined Sunday School with Matt and Christy Taylor from the Wilds Christian Camp ministering to us in music.

“Can God Really Save My Soul?”

Yesterday morning we continued in our series entitled “Can God?” Our subject was “Can God Really Save My Soul?” Our text was the familiar passage of Ephesians 2:8-9.

“Grave Doubts”

Easter (or Resurrection Sunday as I prefer to call it) has become kind of a second-class holiday for Christians. There are two big religious holidays on our calendar: Christmas and Easter. Christmas by far is the biggest celebration for Christians. In fact, Christmas is kind of the climax of the entire year isn’t it? We [...]
