Chad Balthrop • John 7:1-9 If you have a brother, you know. “You think you’re something special!? Prove it!” Let’s be honest: even beyond sibling rivalry, we don’t like being told what to do.

One Question at a Time 43:39

4M ago43:39

43:39

Chris Wall • John 3:14-36 One question at a time – Lostness is the greatest human problem while faith in Christ alone remains the only means to cure that problem.

Stoney Hurst • John 2:13-22 Many of our thoughts and ideas of who Jesus was/is have been shaped by our culture and our desires of who we want Him to be.

Chris Wall • Acts 12:1-19 Most people would say prayer is an important activity. But, let’s be honest, do you really think God hears your prayers and responds to the things you bring to Him?
