Loving Your Neighbor

"That is what we called them to do." This comment and so many other have expressed the sinful nature and kept us from serving others. What does it mean to serve someone? Why don't understand Christian Freedom and serving others is a part of Christian love and sharing the love of Christ. Join us as we talk about Loving our Neighbor.
