    As ministers together in the gospel of Christ, if we fall into arguing amongst ourselves, we have lost focus and we are fighting the wrong enemy. We are all on the same team. Sometimes small things need to be let go in favor of confronting larger issues.

    As we have followed the new disciples of Jesus, we have seen a number of important lessons taught and demonstrated. These early lessons are from the book of John: • Jesus changes your perspective • Jesus gains your faith as a friend • Jesus spends time with family • Jesus introduces us to ...read more
