    Contributed by Sterling Franklin on Mar 27, 2011
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,278 views

    1. There is no other way but Jesus, 2. We are commanded in Scripture (and by Jesus!) to evangelize (preach the good tidings of hope in Him)

    Over the next few weeks, we will be covering some major (though very basic) reasons to evangelize. Some people may have stronger giftings and desires in the area, but all are called to reach out and preach the message of Jesus: His Life, Death, and Resurrection! Two reasons to start: 1. There is ...read more

    Why Worry?

    Contributed by Bruce Hadley on Aug 25, 2020
     | 8,808 views

    Jesus tells us not to worry. However, in today's world, life seems a little more complicated than in Jesus days, and most of us don't worry about food and clothing. So, what did fully have in mind when He tells us “not worry about what we will eat or wear?

    The other day, when I was out on my walk and I noticed the birds, all different kinds of birds, chirping, eating stuff off the grass, and doing what birds do. Then it came to mind; though the world is in a global pandemic, and having social uprisings, it’s not effecting the birds. I thought ...read more
