Ben preaches on the earnest prayer of the Apostles–“Increase our faith!” There are some things they get really right in this plea, and some things on which they are missing the mark.

In this session of our Nicene Creed teaching series, Rev. Ben teaches on the first article of the Creed: We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, visible and invisible.
The Arian controversy boiled down to the all-important question: who is God? Upon this question rests everything of importance in our life. Our doctrine of God, our ideas about His Fatherhood, and our doctrine of creation are essential for the Christian life.

In this sermon, Rev. Ben proclaims boldly that Jesus ministers ONLY to sinners. So if we are to receive the love and power of Jesus in our lives, we must come to Him as sinners in need of His forgiveness, which we know He so freely offers.
