The purpose of this course is to make today’s Christians think about some of the things we are facing in our society as Christians. Christian people should be “thinking” people when it comes to the issues we face in our society.

Through the ages of time, God’s people have had to face difficult situations in ...read more

Today, we are going to look at love. I told you last week, that one verse has been driving me as a ...read more
