When was the last time you invited someone to church? As Christians, we are called on and equipped to be witnesses for Christ Acts 1:8, and we are to tell people the Good News about being a Christian. The Apostle Paul wrote (Rom 10:10-15) that people become believers by hearing the Good News and that the [...]

Storms of life are going to happen. Expect them and be ready for them.
