Join us as we wrap up our study in John's epistles by looking at 2 & 3 John. While these 2 letters do not teach us any new doctrinal truths, we do get some historic insight into the life of the early church as well as the significance of one of the most practical ways the early church shows “love for the brothers”.
God the Father wants His beloved children to know that they know Him and have eternal life. Join us as we look into 1 John 5:13-21 and see the assurance available for those who are in Christ.

As we wrap up our study in 2 Samuel, we get a glimpse of David’s Greater Son, Jesus Christ, who made the ultimate costly sacrifice in our place. Listen as Kristi Wile leads us through our passage to the portrait of the King of kings and Lord of lords.
King David is restored to his rightful place as king, but we learn of differing responses to his return. Some are still in rebellion while others respond in submission and surrender. Listen as Kristi Wile leads us through a difficult passage to the place where true heart-felt gratitude is sung in praise to our Eternal King, Christ Jesus.
