Worship has nothing to do with giving, though we can worship sincerely when we pray.

Why do I believe in God? Only I can answer that question.
2 main reasons why I have faith that there even IS a God.
1) The world. Not everyone can look at what surrounds them and see the divine. I can, and I do. When I look past ... Read More
