Radically Obedient Discipleship Part II

We are in the midst of a three-part blog series looking at the life of Mary as our example of living a life of discipleship. If you have not had the opportunity to read the first post I encourage you to go back and take a quick look. A significant part of our discipleship is establishing rhythms that draw us into the Word and the Holy Spirit’s presence. And yet, it doesn’t stop there.

For Less than 67 Cents, You Can Introduce a Young Person in India to Jesus

“I didn’t make it to the NFL on my own,” admits Rashied Davis, formerly a wide receiver for the Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions. “God put people in my life who helped me accomplish everything I’ve been able to accomplish.

Today Rashied has retired from the National Football League and serves as a Biblica Ambassador.
