Writing Off The Future

Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 14, 2014

Teaching Christian values without bringing our children to faith in the Risen Son of God, condemns them to eternal death. The Pharisees stand as a beacon warning Christians not to succumb to the lure of presenting Christian values.

Why Was Christ A Carpenter?

Contributed by Bob Joyce on Sep 6, 2007

It was not by chance or mere coincidence that Christ was raised in the environment of a carpenter’s shop.
