'True freedom in life requires grace from above'

Romans 6:1-11 | Pastor Aaron McMillan

Do you feel pressure? Most of us do in one form or another. Of course sometimes the pressure we feel is unfair, but other times it's totally reasonable. Perhaps you feel like the author of this week's Bible passage when he says, "I don't understand myself. I do things I don't want to do and do things I don't want to do!" What's a person to do? Join us this week and we'll consider what the Bible has to say about it.
