Our generation is in chaos. In our non-denominational and atheistic pluralistic culture there is a lot of confusion going on in our nation. Young people are starting to flock to Christ. This is good.

Matthew 6.9–13 (𝔖): Scripture as Catechesis A pillar of Christian orthodoxy rests in the inerrancy, inspiration, and infallibility of the Scriptures. Christianity confesses that God gave His Word through the Law and Prophets, which bore witness to the Word Incarnate (cf. Rom. 3.21; Heb. 1.1–4). By nature, Scripture proceeds from the mouth of God (Jn.

Ezra 3.10-11 (𝔐): Liturgical Continuity Liturgical worship has formed the church’s service for the last two millennia.
