What if all it took to bring us to our knees and to ignite our affections was the Word opened and the presence of God? What if that was enough for us?

We need to know what the Bible says about abortion and marriage, poverty and slavery, and we need to see how all of these issues fundamentally relate to the gospel.

We don't have stomachs for the things of this world because we have feasted on the goodness of our God.

We don’t go to Scripture for permission to do what we think is best, but for direction to do what He says is best.

The Life of Christ determines everything about us.
