Sunday morning service at Gospel Light… it’s like going back home to be with family. It’s a time and place to recharge our batteries and eat from the Word of God.

Good morning dear Gospel Light souls. When a blogger can’t sleep, then it must be time to read the Word of God, amen.

Brother Bob Brado was back this Sunday morning to finish his teaching on the life of Samuel.

After his review, Bro. [...]

This post will center on the missionary visit this Wednesday evening (Aug 25) to GLBBC. However, before I do, please allow me to write that our hymns were beautifully accompanied by a mini orchestra: Luke and Grayson with guitars and Julia and Nancy with violins.

This fine mid-August Sunday was begun for many of us at Gospel Light by the fine teaching of Pastor Vince Giardino, who chose American History and the Bible as his topic.

The lesson [...]

(Sunday Morning Recap 08-01-10) During our adult Sunday school, Pastor Giardino conducted a word study on the meaning of “accept/acceptable” in the bible.
