Receiving the Gift

March 12, 2023 • Bryan Fojtasek • Acts 2:36–41, Ephesians 2:4–10

Give

God is offering the gift of salvation to everyone, but we need to make an intentional decision to receive the gift. Peter's sermon in Acts 2 helps us understand what it looks like to accept God's offer of salvation: obeying Jesus as our master, trusting him as our savior, and being reborn through repentance and baptism

Living in Light of Eternity

March 19, 2023 • Bryan Fojtasek

God wants everyone to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. One truth that we need to acknowledge is that there is more to life than what we get to experience on this earth. For those of us in Christ, we get to experience the beauty and joy of an eternity with God in Heaven. But we also know acknowledge the reality of Hell, which Jesus describes in very drastic ways as a warning. We need to make sure we are living in light of eternity and taking full advantage of God's gift of salvation.

Life to the Full
