Growing together in the Spirit of Jesus Christ...

"For I long to visit you so I can bring you some spiritual gift that will help you grow strong in the Lord. When we get together, I want to encourage you in your faith, but I also want to be encouraged by yours." - Romans 1:11,12 NLT

more fun

One of the biggest misconceptions
about God and Jesus Christ
is that if you are a Christian
you can’t have fun anymore.
That is simply not true.

“Being a believer means great celebration and joy,
both in our lives here on Earth and after.
God meant for believers to have fun and celebrate.
There are a number of examples
throughout the Bible of great celebrations.
David danced.
The Jews celebrated upon their exodus from Egypt.
Jesus turned water into wine at a wedding celebration.
God meant for believers to celebrate
and have fun because celebrations lift the spirit.
He wants Christian teens and adults
to have fun[as well as children]
so they can see the beauty and meaning
in the life He gave to us.”
- Kelli Mahoney

“I cannot even imagine where I would be today
were it not for that handful of friends
who have given me a heart full of joy.
Let's face it, friends make life a lot more fun.”
- Charles R. Swindoll
