		<title>Gus Harter: Free Grace</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Salvation is free, a gift of grace. We as God&#8217;s children did nothing to earn the gift of eternal salvation. The bible teaches that from the time we are born, our nature leads us to say and do things that displease God, and so fall short of His perfect standards. By ourselves we are helpless [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gus Harter: The Life of Caleb</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We can draw inspiration from the lives of America&#8217;s founders, or from the examples of others we know and respect. For the disciple of Jesus Christ, the biographies captured in scripture are worthy of study, reflection, and emulation of the better parts. Elder Harter draws practical principles from the life of Caleb, beginning in Numbers [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gus Harter: The Messiah Revealed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Around the age of 30, Jesus Christ began his public ministry. He was baptized, then tempted in the wilderness, as recorded in the gospels.

		<title>Gus Harter: Intimacy With the Almighty</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Preaching from Philippians 3, Gus Harter emphasizes the importance of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Paul pointed out his own distinguished lineage, his devotion to religious activities, and his good reputation among the religious leaders of the day. None of these, said Paul, were of any value compared with knowing Christ. If we desire [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gus Harter: The Marks of an Effective Church</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The primitive church whose early days are recorded in scripture was remarkably effective. We can read of occasions on which 3,000 and 5,000 new members were added in one day. The rulers of the day said of the young church that it was turning the world upside down. It changed lives on a grand scale. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gus Harter: Evangelism in South Forsyth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Peter cast nets. John mended them. Several of Christ’s earliest disciples were fishermen, and Jesus told them to leave their trade and learn to be fishers of men. Did these disciples perhaps have an advantage in their new calling because of the skills they learned in their old vocation? Successful fishermen know the ways of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gus Harter speaks from Ephesians 6:10-20, outlining the warfare set before the Christian, the armor provided by God against the battle, and the nature and necessity of prayer in the daily course of the war. First, the apostle Paul describes a spiritual warfare in which we are soldiers. Our fight is not against flesh and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ben Mozingo: Be Salt, Be Light, Bear Fruit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ben Mozingo turns to Matthew 5:11-16, part of a longer discourse delivered by Jesus Christ to His disciples. In this passage, Jesus exhorts His disciples to be salt and light. Like salt, we are to flavor and preserve this world. Flavoring, or “savor,” indicates our lives are to be noticeably different from the lives of [...]]]></description>
