Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Apr 22, 2014

The end of the world is coming. Even if the end doesn't come in our lifetime, everyone dies at some point. This fact serves as a constant and urgent reminder that our goal as followers of Jesus is to go to heaven and we want to take as many others with us as we can.

It's a big Bible Word but it has a simple meaning. A disciple of Jesus is a follower or even more ...read more
