AM Sermon – Anthony Rex (Acts 7:51-60) When fully engaged in the mission of Christ and presenting the message we will run in to those who vehemently oppose this effort.

AM Sermon – Anthony Rex (Acts 2:1-4) The mission of Christ is bigger than anything one person or even a group of people can do on their own. We limit the mission of Christ the moment we try to do it on our own. It is by and through the power of the Holy Spirit […]
