Description
Christ calls us to always be prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks us for the reason for the hope that is in us, to take up the shield of faith with which we can extinguish the flaming darts of the evil one, all the while seeking to save others by snatching them from the fire. Join with Pastor Steve Andrews, who serves at St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Lee's Summit, MO, to be encouraged by God's Word and ready to proclaim Christ to your neighbor.
