Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 23, 2024

Is our faith based upon Christ or human traditions? Let's look in Colossians 2.

Church traditions build upon the foundation of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 3:10-15). Some traditions are like gold, silver and precious stones.

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on May 13, 2024

Is It Ok To Doubt? Series

Contributed by Roberta Karchner on Apr 19, 2024

For the doubters and skeptics, this is where you belong, right there with Thomas. Jesus didn't criticize his doubting, he invited him to actually touch him. You don't have to believe to come, this is a place where we can ask our questions. This is a place where we find Jesus to be real.

My theme this Eastertide is the way that Jesus changed who we are AFTER the resurrection – while most of our studies are on the person Jesus BEFORE the crucifixion, what happened after is what changed us permanently. But the truth is, even those of us who call ourselves believers doubt at times. ...read more
