The Deadly Sin of Gluttony

This message is the fifth part of our sermon series, "Seven Deadly Sins." Join us as we explore how to sever the root of these chief sins and cultivate the virtues that can replace them. In this message, Pastor JR walks through Philippians 3:17-21 to define what gluttony is and how we can battle it.
