A Life That Points To Jesus
Guest speaker Rev. Augustine Mathur of Vishwa Vani Ministries in India encourages us through the example of John the Baptist—a life marked by clear calling, holiness, courageous truth, humility, and a wholehearted commitment to preparing others for Jesus.

A well-known expression — and the title of a novel by Thomas Wolfe — is “you can’t go home again.” With this comes the assumption that things won’t be the way they were — and if they are, they will probably be worse.
