Matt's Messages

Walking Closer With God

What is it like to be (or have) a close friend?
What’s the difference between Knowing someone (info about them) and Knowing them (personally)?

    2. Luke 10:38-42 – Mary and Martha, Mary chose what is good

Another way to see that God’s Word is true is to see what it says about the world around us.

Jeremiah 17:9 – “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked”
