Sunday Sermon Series – “God Promises”- 10/26/2025

COMMENTS I was tempted this morning to include one of the late Charlie Kirk’s masterful rebuttals here, in response to someone challenging him about the U.S. being founded by atheists. I figure y’all can look it up on YouTube, and the relief above is proof enough for today. One of the key ingredients in Charlie’s … More Sunday Sermon Series – “God Promises”- 10/26/2025

Devotional – “Judge Not?” – 10/22/2025

Devotional/Study – “Carnal Christians” – 10/06/2025

If you are anything like me, being called a “Carnal Christian” is akin to being called cursed at. I believed that the two terms were completely incompatible. How could a “Christian”, someone with the indwelling Holy Spirit, live a carnal life? It just did not compute. You can go across America on any given Sunday … More Devotional/Study – “Carnal Christians” – 10/06/2025

Devotion/Study – “Usefulness of God’s Law” – 09/30/2025

COMMENT Last week, we examined what I titled “Death of the Law.” As in today’s Devotional, I relied on John MacArthur’s book, Before the Face of God, and the Baptist Catechism for the foundation of the post. Today, the sources remain the same, as the devotional is another of MaArthur’s from the same book. Here, … More Devotion/Study – “Usefulness of God’s Law” – 09/30/2025
