    I was reminded this week about the power and influence a person’s testimony can have on others, religious or not. Saints where are our stories of faith? Where are our testimonies to the power of Jesus name? Have our voices become muted to the truth?

The phrase suggest that in order to accomplish a truly good deed one has to suffer bad consequences in order to see a good outcome. Much of Christian ministry is like this. We ...read more
