Merciless The Bible tells me that I am a sinner in need of salvation. Do you ever have those moments where you realize how absolutely true that is?

Introduction: Two week ago tomorrow we Americans held our annual celebration of the working men and women of our nation. Now, I’d be willing to bet that none of us here thought of Labor Day in that fashion during that long weekend. No, many may have thought of it as the end of summer, or the last weekend…

Understand why building small groups of believers is important and biblical, and how we can begin to model the "small" nature of the church in a "big" way. Take a tour of the New Testament church with Pastor Leger as he presents the teaching series.
