Value of Religion in Daily Life at Worthen Street church

Rev Bowley Green preached on the value of religion in daily life from Timothy II 4 8 at Worthen Street Baptist Church. He argued the religion of Jesus Christ is practical not just for Sundays, shaping character, business, and daily conduct, and urged love thy neighbor as thyself as a guiding rule. He cited Paul and Cain to show how faith transforms, cautioned against letting wealth dominate, and urged Christians to heed their duty as keepers of each other.
