Growing in Discernment Listen
How do we discern the difference between truth and error? Likewise, if Satan is actively trying to deceive the world, how does he do it and how can Christians identity his deception?

No Cause For Stumbling Listen

Walking in the Light Listen
How do we know if we are 'walking in the light' of God and participating in the process of sanctification - or being made more like Jesus? For Christians, we have a choice whether we walk in darkness or walk in light which affects this process. Our lesson today is about knowing the difference. -
