Romans 8:1-8


Tonight, we begin a brand new series on Wednesday nights that will cover the entire month of May. We're going to study one of my favorite chapters and one of the most significant chapters in all of the Bible.

This evening, we'll focus on the first of these five words: freed. The Bible tells us that because of our Savior's sacrifice on the cross and the presence of the Holy Spirit within us, we are free from the power of sin in our lives. READ TEXT
