Making a Difference in Culture | Matthew 5:14-16; 16:25 | Jesus called us to follow Him. It is not easy. A follower of Jesus lives distinctly from the culture so that a light might be shone that leads others to salvation. But in order to be this kind of follower, we must wholly devote ourselves to our Master. This can be done, but a choice must be made. We explore now, what it means to make a real and lasting difference within the context of culture by following Jesus with a singular and passionate focus.

The Amazing Rusults of Uncommon Faith | Christians talk about the need to "be saved." Saved FROM hell and save TO an eternal life. It's is an exclusive offering, that can be a hard message to hear - but with faith alone salvation is accessible to us.

By Faith Alone | Many religious systems and Christian expectations tend to steer us away from one amazing truth: We are not saved by methods, words, works, or custom. We are saved by faith in Jesus Christ. That's it. We are saved by faith alone! | 11/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Consequences of Ignoring God | Romans 1:18-32 | We don't like to talk about sin. However, Paul spends a great deal of time in the book of Romans setting up the "problem" in order to offer the "solution." The problem is sinful rebellion. The solution is Jesus Christ. Paul paints a clear picture, in this passage, regarding what happens when our sin takes hold and we begin to worship ourselves rather than the creator. There are severe consequences to ignoring God! | 10/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Power of the Gospel | Romans 1:16-17 | In our culture, it's easy to be ashamed of who we are. We're seen as intolerant, narrow-minded, and weak. The Lord, however is Savior and King.
