Needful Things

Contributed by John D Jones on Sep 7, 2011

Life is complex but Jesus narrows all of our Christianity down to one needful thing. True worship is like oil in the lantern -you can burn without out it but you cannot sustain the fire.

No Shelf Life Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 18, 2011

So if God is the centre of our life and work, what does that make us? We have all heard ...read more
