Biblical Truths from West Palm Beach church of Christ

We are in a series where we are talking about how we can be transformed from thinking selfishly to thinking selflessly. In our first lesson, we overviewed the book of 1 Corinthians and saw that the message is that life is not about me. God has ordered the world and salvation so that no one […]

We are in the book of Micah as we want to listen to the voice of the prophets as we prepare to move through the events of 2 Kings. Micah is prophesying during that time, telling them why God is angry with them, what the people are supposed to do, and what God is going […]

We have been looking at Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians as he teaches these Christians how to move from being selfish to selfless.
