The Bible says that the devil wants nothing more than to utterly destroy your life. It is his desire to tear you down and destroy your faith in God. Tonight I want us to look at the life of Nehemiah and how the city of Jerusalem parallels our lives as Christians. The city of Jerusalem [...]

Too many, life is a game a time of enjoyment and self-fulfillment. Everything is about me. What makes me happy? What makes me feel good? What takes up your time and your money? The Corinthian church struggled with the same thing. Paul instructs them to quit the foolishness and serve God.
2 Corinthians 11:16-27 “16 Again [...]
