Growth of Faith

We know that growth is an important normal result of life. Just as physical life results in physical growth our spiritual life should also result in spiritual growth.

Our two week sermon series begins with Psalm Sunday: The Sovereignty of God in His Triumphal Entry and ends with Easter: The Resurrection and Baptism. In the Easter sermon we look at the aspect of the Resurrection that is often overlooked and that is it’s implications for the present.
