Salt and Light
You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet.

Transitioning back to the West End
By Pastor Marty Price Last week I was talking with a good friend who is going through a time of transition in his life. As he shared his testimony and how God is working in his life, I loved the way he described the changes God is bringing about. He called it his “reboot,” which […]
