Responding Rightly to Grace (May 11)

Sin is the rebellion of our will against God’s will. The gospel of Christ proposes to transform us back into people who submit to the will of their Creator. So obviously, there can be no rightful response to God’s grace without obedience (Luke 6:46).

Seeking God with the Whole Person (May 11)

DFBS 219 – Our hearts should be in heaven

If only for the sake of our kids, we need to talk about heaven more. We need to pray about it and sing about it. The prospect of going there should be something they can see is surpassingly important to us, and not just in our words but in our deeds.
