The gift of Christian giving.

Christians learn that godly sorrow over sin leads to repentance which leads us back to God and to forgiveness.

We are in ministry as Ambassodors for Christ to show others how Jesus has redeemed us and given us life.

Believers in the death and the resurrection of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sins are heirs of heaven, who lived now to love God and all others.

While there is much in this life that cause us to "lose heart", as we focus not on what we see, but on the unseen power and gifts we have in Jesus Christ.

The old covenant which God made through the 10 Commandments was something we could not keep and it only convicted us of our sin. The new Covenant which comes through Jesus Christ gives us forgiveness of sins and is most glorious because through faith in Jesus' work we are saved.
