    How will we walk?

    ​The truth is always your most reliable, faithful weapon in this world of chaos.  It is the one thing that we never have to struggle to remember because it is what happened, what was said, or what is needed without pretense or additional information.  When Jesus spoke the words, “I tell you the truth …”, He…

    The ministry works & incredible obedience of Jesus, emphasized by His own testimony of who He is, must encourage the Christian today to be bold and faithful because He is our Lord!  Given as an incredible gift from God, He brings strength to those who follow Him because in His hands rests all authority, judgment,…
