How do I give my life to Jesus? How do I become a Christian? How do I truly become a follower of Jesus?
In Pursuit of Life (Numbers 8)
"I've dedicated my life to Christ". "Complete surrender to God". "We're here to glorify God in everything". We've heard it before. We know it's supposed to be us. But it's more than just pretty words or the Christian ideal.
