We made a resolution for 2009 (and thereafter) for the ministry of “The Most Excellent Way”: we are no longer going to be timid about the Word of God. Have we been timid? Yes.
Recognizing that we are in the midst of a spiritual battle for souls, we must honor God and His Word above all things, and speak the Truth in love. There is only one true, all-powerful God. There is only one way of salvation. There is only one way to eternal glory. Jesus is all in all!

Jesus, and Him only, is our Hope!
Many church leaders — who are sensitive to the spiritual needs of their congregants and people in their community —have stepped up and addressed addiction with Biblical truth, seasoned with God's love and compassion. Read More ...
