After the fall of mankind came the fallout of what it meant to be enslaved to sin. In the Bible's first glimpse of life after sin the Bible shows us an act of fratricide effectively wiping out two sons of Eve who could have taken the seed of redemption into the next generation. But God will not be stopped. This week Pastor Taylor Gabbert talks about what it means to love God and other sacrific...

The fall of humanity is without a doubt one of the most tragic moments of the Bible and in all of human history. The paradise God created for us was lost in a moment of rebellion and slavery took hold. But before the dust could even settle from this climactic collapse, God promised to make it right. In the first moments after the downfall of humanity, God looked at His creation and said He would s...

The world wants us to not believe in God at all. But if there is a God, they want us to believe He is disconnected from our existence. He either created us and left or He's just too big to even care about what we have going on. The book of Genesis addresses these false claims from the very start. The same God who was powerful enough to create everything is the God of the Bible who cares for in...

Before Jesus left He told us to go forth and make disciples. This command is to all Christians since that day. We know we should be sharing the Gospel, but often we do not even look for the opportunities. And if we had an opportunity we probably have not even practices sharing the Gospel enough to know what to say. We know how to talk about our favorite sports team or tv show, but when was the las...

We are told over and over again to be Christlike. But the pinnacle action of Christ's life was to sacrifice Himself for the whole world.

Following Jesus calls for a renewal of our minds that leads to the life of a living sacrifice. This week Pastor Taylor Gabbert ends the &quot...

The truth is that if we stop and take into account all of the evidence, we will see that all of creation is focused toward one thing. The whole universe waits in suspense for this one act that God has promised. The whole Gospel, Bible, and God's plan to glorify Himself will see its perfection on the last day.
