    The Hope of the Gospel

    ByTad Morris November 10, 2023September 13, 2023

    What is the hope of the gospel of Christ? The hope of the gospel is not about living your best life now. It’s not about health, wealth, peace, and prosperity.

    ByBlake Stanley September 15, 2023July 14, 2023

  • What Shall it Profit You?: Material possessions fade, but your soul's salvation is eternal. Seek to please God and secure eternal life.

    What Shall It Profit You?

    ByRichard Riggins February 1, 1961September 18, 2023

    Jesus warned against choosing the wrong goal in life. “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?”—Mark 8:38. No matter how great our material success in life might be in achieving possessions, power, honor, and prestige; it will be of no benefit to us if our…
