2002 Family Stuff
We are a family who loves the Lord Jesus
Christ, as our Lord and Saviour. Each of us has experienced a
new life in Christ by being "born again" (no, it really is *not* a
phrase originating in some country song)
into God's family. Our Lord Jesus Christ said, "unless a man [of
mankind = person] be born again,
he cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven."
What is that all about?
You can find out a lot about what we
believe by going to http://www.ccfourwinds.org
or
just by taking a look at http://calvarychapel.com
or you can just read the bible directly
(it's easiest if you start at the Gospel of John)...try taking a look
