Mark 3:34-35

Rescue gives men the start they need to find new spiritual life through the relationships God has waiting for them.

When we are united, then we are safe, strong, free—rescued for good.

NOTE: the translation used in the narration is the New King James Version.

Explore how God can help you find family — or be family for someone in need!
