Sunday, March 6th

Thank you Terry for today's lesson.
Biblical Truth: We can work with other Christians to spread the gospel.
The Bible calls Christians saints, which means God sets us apart to help spread the gospel to others.
God calls us to get involved any way we can to spread the gospel.
As we grow more mature spiritually, we will be motivated to continue participating in spreading the gospel.
