A Stronger Church
It seems very common that the 21st century church is marked by splits and sharp disagreements, but God’s desire for His church is that we would be strengthened and united… so how do we do that when we’ve been brought up to look out for ourselves? Acts 15:36-16:5 is the text for this message.
The Day Will Be Beautiful
