Grounded In Christ Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Jun 9, 2020

Some miss the gate. Some lose their way, by false teaching, counterfeit spirituality, or not putting beliefs into practice. Some are grounded in Christ, and stand firm in the storms of life!

We know that many people in the world are not interested in eternal life with Christ as Lord and King, and that troubles us.
