The Birth Of Jesus Series

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Dec 22, 2023

We learn about the birth of Jesus Christ in Luke 2:1-7 so that we can understand the reason for his birth.

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Jun 4, 2019

I just can't believe it! Ever said that? That was a common response by those to whom Jesus appeared after his resurrection and it's still a rather common response by many today. Don't be surprised! Be ready!

King Jesus

Contributed by Daniel Owens on Jan 10, 2008

It seems most appropriate today, being my first time here, to establish common ground.
