4/9/23 Easter Acts 10:34-43 “Christ Is Risen! Praise the Lord!” Russian Orthodox Churches around the world will celebrate Easter each year by having their clergy say three times, “Christ is risen!” Each time the priest says this, the congregation responds by shouting out, “Christ is risen...

2/5/23 1 Corinthians 9:16-23 “Rewards in Jesus!” There were many reasons why I enjoyed working with youth groups and confirmation classes. They are always active and you never know what will be next. They had great ideas for doing things. But what I liked most was...
