The Word of Life Podcast

Today we are talking about the passion of Jesus, His suffering for us. I believe in Jesus Christ. Jesus took all the sins of humanity on Himself and gave His life as a ransom for His people. Jesus paid the price for sin that we could not pay. Jesus also gives us His righteousness and the gift of eternal life since He conquered sin and death by rising to new life.

There may be no activity that moves a relationship from acquaintance to friendship more quickly than when you EAT and share a meal together.

Seems like he was always eating with people, sometimes He was miraculously feeding people. If it’s goo...
