Jesus Is The Only Way
on May 9th, 2024
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” – John 14:6  Do you know why the Jews wanted to crucify Jesus, to kill Him? It was because they accused Jesus of blasphemy.

Giving and Serving
on April 30th, 2024
For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. (2 Corinthians 5:14)  I love the story of Hudson Taylor when he was interviewing possible candidates for missionary work.
