A Covenant Community Cares Faithfully Series

Remembrance Day - Then And Now

Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 28, 2000

The Israelites soon forgot their marvellous deliverance in the Exodus from Egypt - just as we today forget God’s mercies - which is why a Remembrance Day is a necessary challenge to remember what we were, what happened and what we should be.

Why Christian Fail…or Do They?

Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Jan 17, 2024
