My family and I started reading the book: Fast Facts on False Teachings by Dr. Ron Carlson and Ed Decker, after we had an encounter with some Jehovah’s Witnesses who came to our door. We thought this would be a great opportunity to share the Gospel, and we wanted to learn more about their religion so we would be [...]

Have you ever had times, where you’ve felt distant from the Lord, but then have had other times, were you feel very close to Him? Have you always wanted to have that “fire,” that “passion” for Christ continually, but you find that it sometimes seems to just fade away? Do you experience times, that you [...]
