We need to get our minds off of sharing gossip, recipes, and social sagas and get them on sharing Jesus.

based on 23 ratings

| 13,377 views

Thanks to Constantine’s move, the church gradually began to think of its universality as power rather than as an evangelical mandate. Christ is to be lord of our political life, our cultural life, our everyday life -- every aspect.
