They taught that is was not enough for a person to just embrace Jesus Christ, but that they also had to embrace the ...read more

A journey to an another land – and older land – where the goals of Christianity were not set by marketers in order to make it more palatable. Instead, the agenda was set by prophets who sought holy, ...read more
