So Jesus' birthday is celebrated by going into debt for stuff when He came to set us free? He only got a manager and people who loved Him. Why do we need stuff we cannot afford?

Luke 2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. "No holiday should manipulate you to the point where you are going into debt just to so show someone that you love them." - ...read more

Christmas News: The Angels Series

Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 8, 2014

The Lordship Of The Risen Christ

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Mar 27, 2016

“Christ died and returned to life so that He might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.” A few months ago I was summoned to serve jury duty for a serious murder case. Because of my former work with law enforcement and corrections, I wasn't selected, but I followed the case, ...read more
