Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 31, 2020

The only institution which Christ founded upon this earth is His Church. He established it more than 1900 years ago. The Church began with just a handful of believers, but through the years many have felt the power of the Gospel message as it was brought to them through the churches.

Men may curse the Church today, but few, I know would want to live in a community where there is no Christian influence, no church. They ...read more

John's Questions; Jesus' Answers

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 9, 2000

Sometimes Jesus gives us answers we don’t want to hear...sometimes He answers the questions we should have asked.

I want you to consider John the Baptist.

Some questions we might have are, “What am I supposed to do in order to gain God’s acceptance and love?” “Do I have to read the Bible all the way through?” “Do I have to knock on a million ...read more

I Really Want To... But! Series

The command to follow Christ as a disciple, as an ambassador, and as a proclaimer of the good news is a command. Yet most of the time we treat our mission in this world as something optional.
