Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 5, 2024

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Feb 4, 2023

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Mar 4, 2020

With God's help and the steady support of Christian friends, we live in real joy by cultivating the mind of Christ - so that, in humility, we forego personal ambition to become Christlike in all that we do.

Answering God’s Call

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 20, 2015

What response will we make to Jesus when he enters our lives and invites us to “repent and believe”? He announces a call and invites us to answer with a new way of thinking and acting.

In Mark 1:14-20, we hear the story of the start of Jesus’ earthly ministry. He is beginning his ministry just as John the Baptist is ending his ministry. Both of them called on the people to repent. The main difference between both ministries is that while John the Baptist was a one man show, ...read more
