    For Christians to really celebrate Easter, they must decide if Jesus is My Savior and that's all, or My Lord and My GOD! Who is Jesus to me really?

    Was Thomas unfairly besmirched when the church begin to preface his name with "Doubting"? Yup.

We’re all here today, singing songs of worship and engaged in what is happening, but we come from so very many places. What’s going on in each of our minds is ...read more
