What we believe about the future impacts what we do today. If we believe that what we are building with our lives will ultimately be destroyed, we will not be motivated. We will instead resort to a survival type of living where happiness is our only medication for a hopeless reality. But, the gospel comes in to bring hope that transcends death! When a person believes in the Gospel, they are not only promised life after death, their life on earth is given purpose.
The mission of the Church is not to make converts; it's to make disciples. Discipleship is less about information and more about information. The process of change requires the activity of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

We can do the same today.

The issue of head coverings is still relevant today - more conservative circles hold to certain protocols, others have none at all. But, beneath the issue is a timeless principle that supersedes all our traditions and protocols. Listen to find out.
What does it really mean to be united in Christ? This question is even more important in a world in which community is difficult to find and keep. But, the answer to this question invites us to participate in the depth of relationship with others that we were originally made for.
It sounds too easy, but the truth is, a word of encouragement can lift up a heavy heart. If you are discouraged, this message is for you. If you want to become an encourager, this message is for you.
