discipleship


I was given the opportunity to speak at our home church on doing devotional times with family in the context of the home. This is something that we have experimented with and sought to do for years now…

Without Jesus what hope would we have. His willingness to suffer injustly on the cross after walking the narrow road in this dark age, was the ultimate example, leading to the ultimate life.
