    As kids we sang: "I have decided to follow Jesus. No turning back!" But is that the reality of our adult lives? Are we willing to deny and sacrifice ourselves and all we have for Christ's sake?

I was defeated, although it took awhile, and I ended up with two black eyes and some swelling to my jaw. I never asked for the fight but it happened and I was ill-prepared to defend ...read more
