Following Jesus in 2020

Wake Side Bar

For many of us, “to grow deeper in our relationship with Christ” is a goal or resolution we want to strive for. But how do we do it? We looked at Paul’s instruction to Timothy in 2 Timothy 2:22 to help us see how to make 2020 a year marked by a deeper relationship with Jesus.
