Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ, Greetings to you in our Lord. That's the key to Christian living - living in Christ. I think truly living in Christ happens when we live in faith in Him, trusting and following Him rather than our own agendas. Wheat Ridge Ministries has provided the following "50 Hints for Health and Hope". I think they are a light and helpful description of what living in Christ could look like. God bless! In Christ with hope, Pastor John
