    We read in Matthew 16:13, Now after coming into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus questioned His disciples, saying, "Who do men declare Me, the Son of man, to be?" (AFV) The above was the question that Jesus asked His disciples. Jesus had performed so many miraculous signs and ...read more

    The command to follow Christ as a disciple, as an ambassador, and as a proclaimer of the good news is a command. Yet most of the time we treat our mission in this world as something optional.

    Good Friday. What was so 'good?' Unless we first realize how 'bad' it could have been for us, we will never fully grasp the 'good.'
