Wow! The GYC conference is such an amazing blessing. My mind is still spinning from yesterday. I am so glad that the Holy Spirit impressed upon us to attend this year, and I now see why people attend every year. Jessica and I are having a fantastic experience attending a wonderful seminar, meeting new people in our general age group, being able to share, networking, and volunteering in various places. Jessi is helping during the meals, which are serving nearly 2,000 conference attendees for breakfast and lunch. That is a lot of people to get through a massive room with …

What happens when we die?
On August - 2 - 2010
Guest contributor, Nilopher, shares the Biblical answer to the question: “What happens when we die?”

Matthew 22:37-40 records Jesus’ words: “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.
