    Jesus must be the source of your confidence if you’re ever going to stand up and stand out for God.

    Back in my teen years a co-worker at the Red Barn Fish Camp #2 in Tyro, NC introduced me to a club that he said I never wanted to be a member of if I could help it. It’s called the WSC Club. The subject came up because one of our buddies in the kitchen wanted to ask a girl out on a date, but he ...read more

    The power of Christ is available to add meaning and depth to our lives. We need only seek to know God and allow God to lead for us to experience that power.

    God has called the church to be something more than we’ve somehow become. It’s time to understand and accept the call...again!
