Every Christian should know the steps needed to lead a person to Christ. I remember back in a western town in Australia being stopped by 6 teenagers when they heard me say hello to them. They asked me if I was an American and what was I doing in their town. I told them we were there in the City

Australia has two animals pictured on their Coat of Arms. They are an Emu and a Kangaroo. These are some strange choices to those who don’t know why they are there. The Emu is nothing but a big, dumb bird and a kangaroo just looks funny while it hops along to escape danger. But there’s more to it

FEELINGS ASIDE
A man once came to a preacher and said, "I was filled with joy in the meeting yesterday. Now it has all gone—all—and I do not know what to do. It is as dark as night."
