How’s Your Relationship with Jesus?

Have you thought about your relationship with Jesus?  Do you have one?   As followers of Christ we are called into relationship with Jesus and ultimately the Holy Spirit, and God the Father too!  And not only that, we are also called invite others to encounter Jesus!  While it is not always an easy task, there are ways to help.
