Jesus was not just a good person with good moral teachings. He wasn't one of many wise men that showed us how to please God and get to heaven.

In this episode, Pastor Taylor talks about the divine kingship of Christ in Hebrews 1:5-14. Get Connected! https://l...

The Christian life is not a life of ease. Sometimes it's easy to wonder if it's worth all the trouble.

By its nature, the gospel transforms a dead human being into a living child of God. Over a lifetime, Christians are meant to gradually display the power of God as He changes their life and matures them to Christlikeness. But obedience doesn't stop at the moment of salvation. It continues for eternity. As we continue the year of Gospel Focus in this episode, Pastor Philip Jackson reminds us in...

Don't you wish life had an instruction manual? Or just directions to the next stop? Negative things can happen, but it'd be nice if it wasn't the result of driving off every cliff along the way.

In this episode, Pastor Taylor ta...

How could we think we deserve better than our Lord? In this episode, Pastor Taylor finishes a series...
