Christ wants us to be healthy. The road to health begins with a desire to be healthy, a willingness to leave bad habits, and then a desire to share health insights with others.

Rising Or Rejecting? Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 21, 2009

The day dawned like any other day ... a little chillier, maybe, than you might have expected this time of year. But still, about as gray and bleak and unpromising as any other day.

Poolside Views Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Apr 27, 2009
