Why Church? There Is a Way Out

Pastor Tyronne Gross Jr.

 

BIBLICAL BACKGROUND —

  • 1 CORINTHIANS 10
  • Israel knew God, yet they still fell into sin and disobedience.
  • Experiencing God doesn’t make us immune from falling.
  • When the old way starts calling, God is faithful to provide a way to remain faithful.
