23Again, this is God’s command: to believe in His personally named Son, Jesus Christ. The biggest thing God asks of us, the most important rule for everyone, is to believe in Jesus Christ. We must believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that God chose Him to die for the sins of all […]
Read moreRelationships are very important. When relationships aren’t doing well, your sense of stability and happiness is inevitably compromised. You don’t feel like getting up and just don’t have the strength to take on any challenges. Relationships often act as a barometer and quickly show the world how things are going between you and God.

Read moreIt’s getting harder and harder to believe. The smarter humans become, the more they get to know science, the deeper they dig into the mighty universe, the greater the challenge to believe like a child.
