Good church community evidences down-to-earth spirituality, guards against threats, and grows through the gospel.

God has infinite supplies of grace in Christ to meet all your needs, but you must daily make the effort to lay hold of Him.

If God has saved you, joyfully sing His praises, but avoid the terrible sin of grumbling.

God ordains trials in our lives so that we will trust Him and honor Him when He delivers us.

God-s way of dealing with us is to take us on -the scenic route,- because His purpose is to teach us to trust and glorify Him.

Delivering people from bondage to sin is God-s work, dependent on His power over the forces of darkness.

Because the Lord is the Lord and He is faithful to His covenant promises, serve Him faithfully even in the face of opposition and setbacks.

To serve God effectively, depend on His presence and strength, be ready for difficulty, be obedient to His--commands, and work with willing people.
