ALONG THE WAY by Brother Don Collins
Minisermons & anecdotes from Brother Collins. Cost is $12.95 - proceeds support the Baptist Medical Missions International. Dr. Tilley says, "Don challenges us to see life and ministry through a different perspective.  To go beyond what is comfortable and predictable, and reach for a level that compels and inspires people to respond." (Click on book for larger image.)

F.A.I.T.H. Outreach meets Sundays at 5:00pm in the Student Center. FAITH is a non-confrontational way to witness to family and friends for Christ. Will you stand before the Heavenly Father and feel embarrassed for never telling another person about Jesus Christ?  For more information call Joe Hull at 903-693-4978.
