Over a century ago, those who sought opportunity in America looked to the west. Among them was a young man named Dwight Lyman Moody, who in his youth had no idea what God was going to do through him.

Life in the body of Christ brings with it a wonderful element of fellowship, both with God and with other believers. And the basis for that fellowship is spoken of by the Apostle John as "walking in the light."
