Scripture of the Day
Leading the Church

Effective Leadership
Submit to Christ! Ephesians 5:21-33
Why do we do church? Please a personality? Hear a sound bite? Take in the latest fad? No. We worship Christ as Lord. And what does that look like? Our church submits to Christ as LORD! Then, we will have a radiant church! Is Christ leading us and our church, or are we seeking to lead Him? (9/20/2016)
Discipleship
What Do I Say to Someone?
We are His display! We glorify God when we endure with our faith and character-no matter what we might face or experience. The chief purpose for Christians, above all else, is to glorify God. (1/23/2008)
