     | 2,686 views

    I’d like to begin with the example of Richard Wurmbrand. His is a famous struggle against true evil. He was born in Armenia in 1909. He was a minister in Romania during the spread of communism across the globe.

    Walking The Road To Bethlehem: Mary Learns She Will Bear The Son Of God

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 2, 2021
     | 1,063 views

    Why do we remind ourselves of the coming of Jesus? I always wondered that as a child. The reason is very simple: The cares of this world, job, college, family, and the various pleasures of life can crowd out the true center of our lives, which is Jesus.

    Welcome, officially to the Christmas season. As we call it, “advent.” Why do we have this season of advent? What is advent?

     | 2,033 views
