He'll not leave you wanting more of these earthly possessions, but you’ll...

All you have to do is reach out to Jesus...

When we die with sin still in our hearts, we pay the price that is death. But God loved us so much He couldn’t stand to lose us. So God sent His only Son to die on the cross for OUR sins.

That’s why in today’s message, Pastor Bill reminds you that the price of sin is...

As Christians, it’s easy to put our energy into the wrong things. When we feel comfortable with our own relationship with Christ, oftentimes we turn to judging others.

Instead of investing in being a judge, put your time into helping fellow believers flou...
