Through a beautiful story he shares in today’s message, Speaker Vern Jewett highlights a key component in realizing “A New Life for this New Year” – the unselfish giving of ourselves to help others. Join us and see how this Biblical precept, while often belittled in our culture, is regarded very differently by Jesus Christ in today’s Scripture passage.

Listen now and make a real change in your life – one that will last for eternity.
