We also do this because we love children here at Vineyard, and it is a community celebration to see these young ones dedicated to God. We took some photos and wanted to share them with you...

When Jesus says to "turn the other (cheek) also", does he mean we are not allowed to defend ourselves and our loved ones? The quick answer for ...

We've been working through a message series here at Vineyard OP called The Complicated Art of Loving Your Enemies. The entire series deals with Jesus' command to love your enemies in Matthew 5:43-48.
