Our Christian Wardrobe

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 13, 2021

For example, there was a time that the public school taught students, that when you applied for a job, you should dress up in your best clothes for the job interviews. Today, it is not unusual to see young people go to a job interview in clothes that look like they wore them to bed last night, and ...read more

The Mathematics Of The Christian Life

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 14, 2021

Many people take great delight in trying out different restaurants in town. Sometimes you can hear folks around church saying, "Let's get together, I have found a G-R-E-A-T restaurant!”

When a church preaches and teaches the Word of God, people who are hungry for God’s Word, will be there every time the ...read more
