Is it possible for us to disagree with one another and still love unconditionally? According to Jesus, the answer is yes. He didn’t come to take sides.

This repetitive reading and instruction takes us deeply into the Word of God and draws us closer to Him.

An increasingly popular claim by skeptics is that Jesus of Nazareth never existed, or, if he did, he was not God. Why should you believe that Jesus is God? No other religion does.

So, how can we defend the existence and deity of Jesus today?

This is King Jesus, who walked among us and lives within us even today.

Each day, you’ll uncover how Jesus lived His mission, the radical love He demonstrated, and why His words and actions matter today.

If you’ve never really been to church (apart from the occasional wedding or funeral), never properly opened a Bible, and haven’t done much praying, then this might be just what you need. Here at CVM we work hard at communicating who Jesus Christ is, the truth, without any gloss or confusing ‘Christian’ language, just simple stuff, honest answers about how this stuff works.
