I can’t even measure up to human standards, much less God’s righteous standard. How in the world can I be godly when I can’t hit the mark in other areas of life? 

This is the best news in the world for people who are sick and tired of staying where they are always going back to the old sins.  God’s Word offers incredible hope for those of you who have started to believe that you can’t live this life.  You can!   

So, faith in Christ alone is the root of justification.  How can we tell if we possess faith or merely profess faith?

The foundation of your faith matters.  We’re going to begin by looking at what is at the heart of the gospel.  If we get this wrong, everything else will be wrong.

Should we take inventory and evaluate the past year and make a plan for the future? Absolutely! But before we do that, I had this thought. What if we took some time to seek what God wants to do in the coming year? 

You see, the gift of Christ is for everyone.  The gift of salvation is for everyone who believes on His name and responds to His invitation.  There’s no point in celebrating His arrival if we don’t accept His salvation.  What good is Jesus being born in Bethlehem if He isn’t born in your heart?

What should we be known for?  Does our reason for existence align with God’s purpose for the Church?

"The best news resulted in the greatest joy because it established the highest peace."

There are good fears and there are bad fears.  Good fears can save your life; bad fears can paralyze your life.

Sometimes, our barrenness is the setup for the miracle.  Until then, pray, hope, believe.
