How Should I Live: Through Another

In looking at how we should live as Christians we quickly see that Christianity is fundamentally different than all other religions and world views. God offers grace and a transformation that comes from within. The vital connection is the life-giving link with Christ.

Romans 6:1-2,6:6-7,6:11
Colossians 3:1-3
