Battling Our Giants     

30 Apr 2007 03:16 AM

In 1 Samuel chapter 17 we can read the story of David and Goliath. Goliath was truly a giant believed to stand about 9 feet tall! He was said to be a man of war even from his youth. One look at him brought on enough fear that many from Israel turned away.

Mature Christians     

29 Apr 2007 12:43 PM

Tearing Down Walls and Starting New     

26 Apr 2007 03:11 AM

One of the hardest things to come to grips with before I'd truly turned my life over to God is that God was really capable of changing me. I lacked the faith He would because I'd cried out to Him and didn't initially see anything great take place.

Reaching Our Infants, Toddlers, and Preschoolers

Reaching Infants When first coming to our church I was surprised to learn of the Sunday school teachers' dedication to infants and toddlers in the way of teaching. Some might be wondering how an infant can be taught about Jesus.
