Following Jesus is more than just not doing anything wrong. Following Jesus is more than your individual salvation. Following Jesus includes action like providing food, clothing, health care, and education for those who need it. This is what it means to love our neighbors as ourself.

Americans are fond of the Bible, but most rarely read it. We lead busy lives, and the Bible can be a difficult book to understand.

Brandon Blacksten shares practical ways you can approach the Bible to encounter God in its pages.

This message is one you can put into practice today.
