If I Tell The World

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Dec 12, 2012

Do our actions line up to our words? Is the ‘fear of the Lord’ seen daily in our walk, talk and life? Have you publically confessed Christ and acknowledged that He is your Lord and Savior? If your faith in Christ is worth having, it’s worth sharing.

Opening illustration: At the close of an evangelistic meeting held by D. L. Moody, a Norwegian youth stood up to testify of his faith in the Lord.

What A Wonderful World Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 17, 2017

When we "Contend For The Faith" we need to realize the importance of contending for the fact that we have been created in the image of God. We're not an accident - we have value and a reason to live. But if folks damage that "image" how can they fix that?
