Living A Devoted Life
“Devoted: Being A Genuine Church,” is Pastor Buddy Gray’s sermon series focusing on what it means to “be the church.” The church is not a building…it is people. See how worship, prayer, Bible study, fellowship, outreach, showing mercy, and serving others
glorify God when they become part of who we are… and not just what we do!
