Values and the New Life
Growing up I remember often hearing sermons about ‘plastic Christians’ or Christians that were not the real deal and wouldn’t stand up to the tests before us.

It is extremely easy to get suckedContinue reading “Staying You In A Changing World”

Less is More
We live in a society where Australians have been told that more is better. We live in a society where the mantra that most Australians live by is “Time equals money and money equals happiness.”
