3. The Word Of God
Contributed on May 26, 2009
Many times we see people who say one thing and do another. This makes it difficult for us to trust people. When it comes to God how does what He says stack up to what He does?

6. The Living Water
Contributed on May 26, 2009
Jesus sees people in a way that we do not. Often times our opinions of others are completely based on what we see on the outside. Jesus has this way of looking into a person’s heart and seeing what they can really do. Often we see Him using unusable pe

7. The Good Shepherd
Contributed on May 26, 2009
Jesus is the good shepherd of our lives. He guides us in the way we should go. He calls us by name. He protects us, leads us, provides for us, and takes us to safety in eternal life.
John 10:11-18 September 30, 2007 The Good Shepherd Can you hear Him calling? There are things in life you want to remember, moments that you do not want to forget. So you document them with pictures.
