Belong - Part 1: The Invitation to Come

Happy new year. Our prayer is that in 2024, you would draw near to God as He draws near to you. One of the greatest mistakes we can make in our Christian faith is that we can make our faith about what we can do for God - when God desires for us to come to Him. So as we begin 2024, join us as we take some time to come to him first. God bless.
Passage: Mark 1:17

Decision Made

Can I put it to you today that the most important decision that you have had to make is - will I follow God today? Join us today as we make that decision once again - to follow God. God bless.
