In the third message in the "How To Study The Bible" message series, Pastor Chris examines the purpose of the Old Testament which was to give the law to God's people and how the law was fulfilled in Jesus's death and resurrection in the New Testament.  When your relationship with God is motivated by a list of dos or don'ts, your attitude and your heart are very different when your walk is out of love powered by the Holy Spirit.

In the final message of our What's in Christmas message series, elder Brent looks at a problem that no one likes to address this time of year, but this problem separates us from God, relationships, and good things. The problem is sin. Sin entered the world through one man, Adam. God's solution to our sin was to send His Son, Jesus, to live a perfect life on earth and overcome death. Jesus willingly accepted the mission that God placed before Him. If you are a Christ-follower, God has a mission for you as well, to tell others about the gift God has given to each of us. If you are not a Christ-follower and want to know how to become one, you can call the church office at 815-561-6249 or send an email to questions@lwccr.com.
