''Freedom in Christ''
In this weekâs message, we rejoice in the truth that Christ has set us free. Before we can live in victory, we must first lift our voices in praise for the liberty we have in Jesus Christ. True freedom is not found in self or society, but in the finished work of the cross. From Godâs Word we discover three vital truths about our freedom in Christ.

'' The Importance of Praise''
In this weekâs message, we journey into Exodus 18 where Jethro rejoiced and praised God for His mighty deliverance of Israel.
