Loving the Unlovely (Rickey McCreless) Mar 01, 2020

Show notes

We need to love others and not seek revenge, and we are to preach the gospel to all. However, there are times when it is best to walk away. In this sermon, one of our elders, Rickey McCreless, uses Biblical examples to show us when we need to just shake the dust from our feet.

Please join us in person at the Ninth Avenue Church of Christ, located in Haleyville, Alabama. On Sundays, we meet at 9:30 AM for Bible classes and at 10:30 AM and 6:00 PM for worship. We also meet on Wednesday evenings at 6:30 PM for Bible classes and a devotional.
