     | 7,188 views

    Visual Sermon comparing our walk with Christ to a Table. Very powerful if done right and if the concepts are taken and made to fit your church.

Actually, Josh was a few years older than Jerusha and had the pleasure of watching Jerusha grow from an ...read more

    How does a Christian deal with Halloween in a way that glorifies God?

    Halloween can be a troubling holiday. Many of us carry fond memories of Halloweens long ago, back when we were growing up. Many of us remember it as innocent fun—a special day just for children.
