Society says bigger is better and more significant. Christmas burns this straw-man argument to the ground. Because of Bethlehem, hope has a name, and His name is Jesus. 📌 Notes: https://t.co/C34h2cVZ9D 📌 Bulletin: https://t.co/SU1lZycLgb 📌 Watch: https://t.co/e8yTjn4GK9

How can sinful humanity approach a holy God? A question that has plagued humanity since the fall. Human priests had limitations. Christ is better, final, and perfect. 📌 Notes: https://t.co/sdOwIkvOVU 📌 Watch: https://t.co/RQmfnSeJie 📌 Bulletin: https://t.co/JTdNCjUKD7

Limiting our understanding of stewardship to money overlooks the big picture of God's ownership. No area of our lives falls o/s the scope of biblical stewardship. 📌 Notes: https://t.co/H8CsePEYpq 📌 Watch: https://t.co/kBT6G76BYr 📌 Bulletin: https://t.co/IW3gFIWVyx

When we turn on the news, we're confronted with an uncomfortable truth that's hard to ignore: evil is real. How do we respond? How does God view this? Is there any hope? 🔴 Notes: https://t.co/uR3TzcI3Yh 🔴 Watch: https://t.co/XEReHxAw4s 🔴 Bulletin: https://t.co/GIiwlERxgP

Man wants to build things. Sadly, and perhaps prophetically, those things are unto himself. Babel reveals humanity's tendency toward self-glorification apart from God. 📌 Notes: https://t.co/hQH61SSxvK 📌 Watch: https://t.co/qXRvqUmId5 📌 Bulletin: https://t.co/zbPaRz630o

Sometimes the greatest threat to spiritual vitality isn't outright rebellion, but the subtle drift toward comfortable, convenient Christianity. #lukewarmness 📌 Notes: https://t.co/Xq27IQpRox 📌 Watch: https://t.co/qXRvqUmId5 📌 Bulletin: https://t.co/zbPaRz630o

Scripture portrays leprosy as more than just a disease. It’s a powerful symbol of sin - defiling, isolating, and incurable by human means. 📌 Notes: https://t.co/Gl1vvhkABg 📌 Watch: https://t.co/rjOvHxcYhU 📌 Bulletin: https://t.co/s6xgxLrWta
