The Lord Is My Shepherd (Part Two)

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Mar 16, 2020

What The Bible Teaches About Cremation

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 28, 2021

The purpose of this course is to make today’s Christian 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
