The

Church

Regretfully, there are misconceptions about what the Christian church is. Hopefully, this showcase will help you understand what the church really is.

Faith

We will study that belief and faith in Jesus is not partial, but total. What does that mean from the words of Scripture..

The

Sacraments

Baptism and the Lord's Supper (Communion/Eucharist). These are the only sacraments (or "ordinances," as many Baptists and evangelicals prefer) that are explicitly instituted by Jesus Himself in the Gospels — baptism in Matthew 28:19 and the Lord's Supper in Luke 22:19–20.

SERIES

Divorce & Remarriage

Some of the most common questions facing Christians in the local church deal with issues of divorce and remarriage. Regretfully Christians get divorced at approximately the same rate as non-Christians. We look into where we are missing the mark and what we need to do to change.

Following Jesus to the End

What does it mean to follow Jesus? We hear that term "following Jesus", but it is important that we add the specificity that the following goes all the way to the point of death. What does Scripture say that looks like? If we are truly a disciple what can we expect now and in the future?

Instructions for a Godly Life

We walk through 2 Peter 1:3–11, unpacking the qualities God calls every believer to build on their faith — self-control, endurance, brotherly affection, love, and more. Each episode traces these virtues back to the gospel, showing they're not self-manufactured effort but the fruit of what Christ has already secured for us.
