It’s a privilege, a stewardship God entrusts to men & women in overseeing the ministry of His flock. 1 Peter 4:10 As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. ...read more

So it’s often difficult to approach the subject with an open mind. But, we need to seriously examine ...read more
