     | 2,339 views

Yes, they ...read more

    There are times in our lives when we need to speak boldly. The apostle Paul realized that when he asked the Ephesian church to pray for him. He had a specific prayer request. And it was for boldness.

     | 4,141 views

    What would be wrong with "baptizing" an infant? Is it Biblical and was it a practice of the early Church?

One day he was passing by a Methodist camp meeting and he watched as a young Methodist preacher sprinkled water (for baptism) on a baby who was kicking & screaming at the top of its lungs. When the ...read more
