Grace for Ethiopia
The brothers had gathered early…even though we didn’t make it there for nearly two hours after they had gathered. They were ready and eager to begin the study. Their eagerness is fueled by questions regarding God’s Word.

In Praise of Grace, part Three
Oh how many problems with relationships in the church would be erased were we to really praise the character of our God. How the anemia of our evangelistic effort would be obliterated if we were to know what it is to praise our God.
In the Praise of Grace, part Two
God did what He did to magnify to us and in us the awesome and amazing brilliance of His own character. So then the plan of salvation is meant for the purpose of displaying the magnificence of His Person.

A Catalyst for Grace
I exist to passionately pursue the glory of God as a catalyst for the spread of His grace far and wide so that people may give praise and thanksgiving to Him so that He may be supremely glorified.

There’s Power in the Blood!
Christ was not a failure! And neither was He a liar. When He shouted, “It is finished” (John 19:30), it really was finished. The work was complete, the price was paid in full. And now we can say that there is absolutely no condemnation for anyone who is in Christ (Rom. 8:1).
