I heard about a church that recently began offering “gluten-free” bread for the Lord’s Supper. 1. It has been very well received, but its initial introduction didn’t go so well. 2.

    The most important job anybody could ever have is raising a family. We have a divine trust in this area and will be held accountable to God for our success or failure.

    Introduction: Some jobs are more important than other jobs. I think the importance of a certain job has to do with who is asking you to do it.
