How to Respond to the Charleston Massacre
Last Sunday I spoke briefly about the recent Charleston massacre. Below is a link to a blog post that is helpful for us as we seek to bring the gospel to bear in relation to such a tragedy and the sin of racism in general.

Being Salt and Light in this World
On Sunday (July 5th) I shared with you that as a
church we need to have a firm grasp of the Word of God and also an awareness of
the culture in which we are living. We are called to be salt and light in this
world (Matthew 5:13-16), and to do this rightly we need to be guided by the truth
of God’s Word. This is not always an
easy task, and we must think clearly in so many areas of challenge that we find
ourselves living in today. For this
reason, I will be passing on to you from time to time insights from men who are
committed to God’s word and are insightful in terms of how to live out the
truth in the world that we live.
The Supreme Court’s ruling regarding same-sex marriage is certainly
reflective of a culture and legal move that is at odds with God’s truth and creative
order. Below you will find some links to
blog posts that are helpful in our response to this issue. I hope you take that time to read and think
through these articles.
In Jesus,
Steve Matson
