			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Are you that child? The one trying to improve The Master&apos;s work with a crayon? Today, Pastor Marc reminds us that salvation is by grace and not by our works.

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;You know, you can clean someone up and give them a makeover, but at the end of the day, they’re still the same person. A fresh haircut and a new set of clothes don’t change what’s in a person’s heart. Only God can do that through the work of the Holy Spirit. Pastor Marc highlights for you in today’s message the story of how God completely transformed Paul’s life from the inside out. He went from Christian hunter to being hunted for spreading the love of Christ. Truly a work that only God could do.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

When you were young you did certain things and acted and thought a certain way, but with time, your lifestyle and priorities had to change. Pastor Marc encourages you today that if you’ve lost friends by putting your faith in Christ, you’re in good company. Many before you had to make that same decision. Following Christ isn’t easy, but putting Him first is the right choice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

As we see in Philippians, Paul’s attitude towards life was this: “To live is Christ, but to die is gain.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

In today’s message, Pastor Marc teaches you about a man who once fit that description known as Saul of Tarsus. Amazingly God touched his life and radically changed him from persecuting the Church to being one of its most dedicated martyrs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

You should be sharing the Gospel with everyone, even those who you have issues with.

Even if it’s uncomfortable, it’s your job as a believer to call out those in sin and call them to righteousness in Christ.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p> ]]></content:encoded>

When you do something charitable, it’s important to remember that without God nothing is possible, but with God anything is possible.

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;There are many denominations of Christianity that have differing beliefs when it comes to baptism and how it relates to salvation. As Pastor Marc continues his teaching series through the book of Acts, he’ll be explaining that baptismal regeneration, or the belief baptism is necessary for salvation isn’t biblical. Baptism is indeed an important step of obedience for a Christian, but baptism itself isn’t required for salvation. Salvation is a free gift from God by the sacrifice of Jesus alone, nothing else can be added. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Today, Pastor Marc will be explaining to you that there is only One Way to get to the Father in Heaven, and that is through Jesus. Jesus is the Door through which all must enter eternal life. There is no other way because He alone is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. The way to eternal life is restricted to just one avenue which is Jesus. The Way is narrow because it is the only way, and relatively few people will go through it. Many more will attempt to find an alternative route to God, but it leads to eternal destruction. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

When they came together in prayer, they received that gift from God so they could have the power to go out and make disciples of others like Jesus did. Today, Pastor Marc’s going to encourage you to seek The Holy Spirit’s strength only He can give. He’s your source of encouragement when you’re down, and guidance when you need it. Jesus’ sacrifice made it possible for you to live a life of ministry and love that looks like His.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p> ]]></content:encoded>

In today’s message Pastor Marc, takes you there; up to the very moment that darkness covered the land, the earth shook, and the veil was torn. Can you imagine what the soldiers were thinking when all of this was happening? I wonder if they ended up changing their mind about Him.

In today’s message Pastor Marc, reminds us that we aren’t repenting to make our life better; we’re repenting because we’ve rebelled against God. Think of Jesus on the cross, He bled for you, He died for you, not so you could keep on sinning, but rather to live a life empowered by the Holy Spirit to walk out righteousness here on earth. Your talk should line up with your words. Let’s not be a double-minded person. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

The teaching reveals a valuable insight into both Jesus&apos; identity and the individuals He chose. All of this simply stemmed from an honest question to Jesus about taxes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;In the Bible, Jesus said that the most important commandment was to love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. Jesus also said that the second most important commandment was to love your neighbor as yourself. But if it’s one thing Pastor Marc wants you to take home with you today, it’s to always walk in love. In today’s message, you’ll find that the Pharisees did not love others but themselves. And Jesus calls them out using the word of God. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;The way of God’s kingdom contradicts human reason. God’s ultimate goal in this world is to save as many as are willing from their sin and its eternal consequences. He sends us out to take the Gospel to everyone on the planet - that’s a big task. Yet, He chooses common people? Shouldn’t He choose those in positions of power and influence? As Pastor Marc will point out in today’s message, God intentionally picks the lowly because they’re humble and will point the glory back towards Him.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;We humans have an inclination for pretending. We love it when people learn about what we do, whether or not it’s completely true. We also might enjoy overemphasizing our skills to those around us. Even in the Christian life, people can pretend to fast on the outside, while living a normal sinful life on the inside. In today&apos;s message, Pastor Marc explains how fasting can help you change your pretense, and submit your motives to God. You can be genuine in your fasting and then will be able to accept God’s blessing.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

You must receive Him in order to have salvation and to be cleansed as white as snow.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

God doesn’t send anyone to Hell, because everyone has a choice to freely receive forgiveness of their sins. Everyone has to make the decision for themselves if they want to spend eternity in Heaven, or Hell. Also, God can’t send good people to Hell because no one is good, no not one. There’s no such thing as a good person because all have sinned and fallen short.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

Today, Pastor Marc will be teaching you how although Jesus is loving and gracious, He’s also a just and righteous Judge who hates sin. What’s notable about Jesus’ Earthly ministry, is that he grew very angry with the religious leaders who were Hippocrates.

Today, Pastor Marc will be teaching you how although Jesus is loving and gracious, He’s also a just and righteous Judge who hates sin. What’s notable about Jesus’ Earthly ministry, is that he grew very angry with the religious leaders who were Hippocrates.

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;As Pastor Marc continues his teaching series through the Gospel of Matthew, he’ll be explaining how the characteristics of the devil should be totally rejected by all Christians. The devil is the father of lies, and he’s lied since the very beginning. Satan’s pride caused him to become delusional and he began manipulating not only other angels, and not only mankind, but he’s even tried manipulating God. If you struggled with pride and lying, remember these are very evil character traits, and you must repent.  &lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

As most of us would likely consider, he was going to “put her away quietly” in divorce. Under the law at that time, he could’ve had her stoned to death for her unfaithfulness. We can assume that his heart was broken, but in the midst of that brokenness - he received a message from God. Trusting in God’s plan would take him on an entirely different path.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

As most of us would likely consider, he was going to “put her away quietly” in divorce. Under the law at that time, he could’ve had her stoned to death for her unfaithfulness. We can assume that his heart was broken, but in the midst of that brokenness - he received a message from God. Trusting in God’s plan would take him on an entirely different path.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Our God is a gracious, patient God. When you see the evil that abounds in the world, this speaks to His patience. He’s waiting and working, trying to draw the hearts of men to Himself, even while they actively rebel and reject Him. As Pastor Marc will remind us in today’s message, while God’s grace is immeasurable and He can forgive the worst of sinners even on their deathbeds - sin has consequences. Even after you repent, you’ll still experience those consequences in this earthly life. &lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;David was not a good example of personal righteousness. He may have had some good moments, but his lows went pretty low. We’re talking about adultery and murder. How did this man deserve the title of “man after God’s heart”? As Pastor Marc will explain in today’s message, it wasn’t David’s ability to follow God’s law perfectly that set him apart. It was his humility and willingness to repent and trust God for salvation. You and I have our share of faults, but God desires a repentant heart, not a perfect one.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;It’s heartbreaking to hear of yet another great Church leader getting caught up in sin. We’ve all experienced it multiple times. It draws the attention of believers and non-believers alike. It soils the reputation of the Church to those outside, as well as discouraging those of us who are part of this body. As Pastor Marc examines Jesus’ genealogy in today’s message, he’ll draw our attention to King David. We consider him a hero of our faith because of his humility, but he was far from perfect.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>

			<itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Jesus was born into humble circumstances. He wasn’t born in a castle or even a middle-class home. He was born in a barn to lower-class parents whose only qualifications were that they submitted themselves to God. They didn’t have wealth or position - in fact, they were looked down on by many. In today’s message, Pastor Marc will remind us that while we can’t be Christ, His death and resurrection have made it so we can be like Him - no matter what your background or position in society.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>
