Speaking of Jesus
Tired of defending Christianity? There's good news...you don't have to. Author Carl Medearis is not interested in keeping Christianity alive. Not one bit. Carl believes it has grown into something that is rarely attractive, frequently divisive, and all too often embarrassing. He believes you may feel this way too.

His offer is that doing so allows us the freedom to relax and feed on Jesus. Learn more »
