    We face troubling times, not the least of which is the challenge of raising our children as Christians in a world crazed by hedonism, secularism and lack of moral and ethical moorings. There is stability to be found in Jesus.

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead has spiritual, psychological (mind, will, emotions) and physical ramifications ...read more
