We don’t really know HOW TO serve the young people, but at least we can give ourselves to the Lord for His interest and heart’s desire. We want to allow Him to first serve us, minister to us, and then also allow Him to serve the young ones through us. Below is brother Celdrick’s testimony […]

This morning I was impressed with these simple principles of the Body of Christ as unveiled in 1 Cor. 12:24, But our comely members have no need.
