CHAIRMAN   :  Cecil Mar
SPEAKER      :  PASTOR IAIN DAVIS
SCRIPTURES :  2 Samuel 13:1-22

 

Sermon Notes:

  • Sin does not begin with our eyes, it starts with our hearts.
  • The consequences of sin are pain and hurt for others, and ourselves
  • In the end, Ammon’s sin did not satisfy his desire. Sin does not satisfy ours!
