More…and Less
He must increase, but I must decrease. (John 3:30, NKJV) The above words were spoken by John the Baptist when some of his disciples and the Jews came to report to him that Jesus had started baptizing, and everyone was going to Him. John was quick to remind them that he had…

Moving Forward
