9/10/23 Sunday’s Sermon By Buddy Gray

Connecting People to Christ

Matthew 28:18-20, ESV

Then Jesus came to them. He said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. So you must go and make disciples of all nations. Baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And you can be sure that I am always with you, to the very end.”
