Once we accept Jesus as Savior, we are not done; if we are to experience new life in Him, we also have to renew our minds. The world has its way of doing things and we are inundated by those ways every waking hour. If we are not careful, we will conform to those ways. …
Attending church is definitely a goal that we as Christians should have. I love going to church. Having a place to worship, learn the Word of God, and fellowship with other believers is part of a healthy lifestyle. It is a refreshing and restorative way to start the week. But how do you know which …
