You can't give your soul to God, your spirit to the devil, and your body to the world. Our God is a jealous God, but He is also a gentlemen. He is not a ...read more

    Unlike the crowds on Palm Sunday, who hailed Jesus as king but only days later demanded that he be crucified, we need to hold on to our faith and hope in Christ. Here's why and how.

My experience with it dates from nearly 40 years ago. In the spring of 1986 I was preparing to ...read more
