It’s hard to talk to your friends about Jesus. They might not believe you or you might not think you’re good enough of a Christian for them to listen and because of that, you don’t say very much. This can cause you to feel like you’ve let God down. If only you lived in Bible days, it would be different. Maybe, on the very first Easter, Mary...
Being in the time that we’re all in right now, I feel this is a great opportunity to talk about the various gifts, presents and blessings God has instore for us.

You might be one of the Christians that doesn’t finish the race. You could be one who starts well, but doesn’t finish well. That happens to a lot of people.

What if you were watching the Olympics, the running events, the runners were all out there, representing their countries, and it went like this? One runner is standing with his hands on his hips, murmuring at how badly the others were running. Another one is over by the grandstands trying to find a date, while the third runner has left the...
