    What’s My Motivation?

    When it comes to church life, there are folks who are contempt with just showing up.

  • Highlights From Proverbs: Part 3

    “Whoever guards his mouth and tongue keeps his soul from trouble.” – Proverbs 22:3 NKJV I think one of the biggest flaws of humankind is that we are not careful with what we say. I know we can’t please everyone with our words, but we do not have to seek to hurt anyone either. Whoever…
