This weekend I was sent a free copy of Outreach Magazine. This magazine use to impress me. The conferences looked incredibly interesting and helpful. The speakers looked so cool in their up-to-date hair cuts. The magazine was selling the dream of the mega-church. If you could grow a culturally [...]

There is a passion for ministry flowing through my heart. The message of Christ rings loudly in my ear. I never had the blessing of having a relationship with the Lord growing up in Nova Scotia. When I became a Christian, it completely changed my life. I left home, went to [...]
