What Should You Do with What You Know?
Let us not just hearers of the word, but doers of it. It is easy to get caught up on either side of a pendulum. To be on one extreme or the other. When I first started following Jesus, I was ready to backpack the world and tell everyone I encountered about the good news… Read more
