After all, he had poured himself into that congregation and sacrificed deeply to teach its members the gospel. But now Satan was attacking it with persecution, doubt, and trial. Were the believers ...read more

They are deadly practices and lifestyles because they lead us to destruction and trash the community formed in Jesus. And this one is no different: sloth. Sloth is more than laziness.

It’s an article of faith that salt is hazardous to your health. And it’s very difficult to avoid, since most ...read more
