There are many different beliefs and practices regarding baptism throughout the world. This week, Pastor Doug explains why we believe that baptism should come after salvation, and not in place of it.

Traditions can serve to remind us of certain events and the importance they are to have on our lives. Communion is a tradition we celebrate to bring our focus back to Jesus's sacrifice. Pastor Ben walks us through the three-part communion service in which we believe. Through all of these parts, we are to remember Christ's desire to have a relationship with us, His humility, and His sacrifice.

The topic of salvation often conjures ideas of the goodness of Christ. However, we don't often think of what it is that we are saved from. This week, Hamilton George tells us that we are saved from death and the wrath of Almighty God. We were given perfection and we chose to be outside of it. God’s holy character demands consequence. He, in His goodness, judges our sin righteously. Salvation is a bridge back to Him from the suffering and death that we deserve.

From the beginning of man's existence in creation, we have had the same nature. We, like Adam and Eve, have been created in the image of God, we desire to control our own lives, and we often choose to be selfish over submitting to God's plan. This week, Pastor Doug shows us the importance of putting ourselves aside and looking to God for His help in our lives and for the reconciliation we need.

Popular culture has many ideas regarding Satan. Most of these have no basis in the Scripture. This week, we look at what the Bible has to say about who our enemy is, what he wants, and how to stand strong against him.

"Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth."
