Do This…
Pastor Hamilton
Communion aids us in our perseverance. It keeps our testimony vibrant and our eyes fixed on the Founder and Perfecter of our faith. It connects us to all who looked faithfully for his return!
Now Is Christ Risen!
Pastor Hamilton
This day should be full of hope and praise! Every day should be lived in confidence that Jesus is coming again to rule as no other (vv. 24–28).

Stewardship and Contentment
Mark Perry
