A Time to Keep Silent

a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,

He who answers before listening— that is his folly and his shame.

But the LORD is in his holy temple; let all the earth be silent before him.”

Evangelism

~ "The goal of our mission life is not to grow churches. The goal of church is to grow missionaries. The goal of the gospel is not to get people to church. The result of the gospel is that people will find each other and gather because of the deep meaning of a common experience." - Hugh Halter and Matt Smay

Teachings of Christ

Bread of life

John 6:32-35

32 Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

33 For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

34 “Sir,” they said, “from now on give us this bread.”

35 Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.
