How are you Identified?

This week I would like to talk about our identity. Today, in our society, there seems to be an identity crisis. Our government tells us that we should accept a person by what they identify as. Still there seems to be some confusion, in a recent congressional hearing, a congress person was asked the definition of a female. They couldn’t …

“Who is Jesus of Nazareth?” As we go into the Easter holiday month, I would like to look at This question. I think most of us have heard of Him.
