Our sins may be many, but God's mercy is always more! Join pastor Brian Pursley for the conclusion of our Foundation series through the book of Romans! Today we discussed five pressing theological questions, such as, "is it possible to lose my salvation?" and, "how can I be content when others prosper and I do not?"

May we be known for our devotion to and faith in Jesus Christ! Join pastor Brian Pursley for the final chapter of Romans, which commends many faithful servants of the Lord. Although acts of faithful service may go unnoticed by men, God sees all our deeds. Could you be counted among those who please God by their selflessness?

"For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me..." (Romans 15:18) Join pastor Brian Pursley for the conclusion of Romans 15. We are called to preach the good news of Jesus Christ, what He did in our lives to save us, but, most importantly, what He did on the cross. Only through His sacrifice can we have eternal life!

Christ put aside His own good in order to humbly dwell with His creation; may we do the same! Join pastor Brian Pursley as he preaches from Romans 15 about supporting one another. Romans 15:5-6 says, "May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ."

A crucial part of loving one another is being sensitive to each person's unique needs. Join pastor Brian Pursley as he continues a message of both self-control and liberty in Christ. What may be acceptable for one could be the stumbling block of another. How can you be sensitive to the needs of those around you today?

Our actions matter, but our attitudes matter most. Join pastor Brian Pursley as he shares the liberty we have in Christ to honor God in many ways. Whether a person celebrates a day, or another is reverent on the same, either one may glorify God by his intention. Romans 14:8 says, "For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's.

Love one another and fight against sin. Join pastor Kaden Miller as he reminds us of these essential tenets for the Christian life. Even Jesus said it, all of the laws can be summed up in one essential statement: love others sacrificially. He set the perfect example, and now we follow in obedience.

Remember to pay your taxes! Join pastor Micaiah Sipes for a study on authority from Romans 13:1-7. We look to the stories of Esther, Daniel, and David to take inspiration from their faith in God's sovereignty. As much as it is possible, we are to live peaceably with others and respect the laws of the land.

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. (Romans 12:21) Join pastor Brian Pursley for the conclusion of Romans 12. God instructs us, His redeemed people, to be known for our love and to overcome the forces of darkness by His power. Will you help to build the Kingdom by loving someone today?

We thank our Creator who has made each of us unique! Join pastor Brian Pursley as he reminds us we've each been given spiritual gifts as a byproduct of our salvation. What better purpose than to glorify God with the abilities He's given us? Roman's 12:6 says, "Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them..."

Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind. (Romans 12:2) Join pastor Brian Pursley for an encouragement to be transformed by the power of God's will and Word. Only His will is good and perfect, and only His Word is infallibly true. Let us, therefore, have sober judgment according to the measure of faith that God has assigned to each of us.

How gracious a God we serve! Join pastor Brian Pursley for the encouraging conclusion of Romans 11. Even if we have rejected God at some point, He is merciful by allowing us many opportunities to be grafted into His family. Therefore, we should also strive to show mercy and grace to one another.

Though it can be difficult to understand God's plan, we trust in His wisdom. Join pastor Brian Pursley as he begins teaching through Romans 11. This chapter emphasizes the importance of faith in God, as there is no work a man can do to save himself. In Romans 11:6, it says, "But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace."

We can show our love for God and others by sharing the Gospel with those who have not heard. Join pastor Brian Pursley as he shares this biblical mandate: those who have been called by God are to call others, too. We have the opportunity to be a part of someone's salvation! As it says in Romans 10:13, “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

"Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9) Join pastor Brian Pursley as he reminds us what the Gospel is all about. We are alive in Christ because of His grace and mercy. We confess our faith in His salvation as the only way to be saved!
