Sunday Morning 6/14/09

We had a great service Sunday morning as we worshiped with both flesh and blood and spiritual family together.  I have family visiting and we also baptized our youngest daughter this Sunday.  The message is from Matthew 5 and covers verse 17 to the end of the chapter.  We also had a concert Sunday night, but the music is mostly covered by copyrights and such so I can’t post that audio here.

May God richly bless you this week.  The sermon audio is available by clicking the play button below or you can click this link for a downloadable podcast version.
