Read MoreChristian Life
We have all sinned and come short of the Glory of God. But God, the Father, sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to be our advocate and satisfy that judgment for those who believe in Him.

Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” But with the support and the love of Jesus we can overcome any life problems.
