INTERVIEW | Christina Berry

BERRY-4213-T1[1] (2)_428x600 Christina, describe yourself for our visitors.

Flawed, freckled, and faithful. I’m a single mother of two, currently adopting a foster child who’s been in my life for the last 1 1/2 years. I love math and books, which makes for a strange mix. My favorite things tend to be random: dancing with the kids to music in restaurants, winning the Family Feud game show, doing infomercials for eye surgery, and substitute teaching. Yesterday marked the first anniversary of my husband leaving our family. Without the love and constancy of my Savior Jesus Christ, I would be lost and very afraid. Instead, with His presence in my life, I am full of hope and only a bit afraid. ;)

BOOK REVIEW | If God Were Real

image IF GOD WERE REAL
by John Avant, PhD

Do you live your life like you believe in God? If your coworkers looked at you, would they know that you are a Christian by the way you act and talk? Or are you someone who makes a token appearance at church on Sunday morning, and then lives your life the way the world does?

How often do you think about the Lord? Do you show much love and concern to others? Do you feel gratitude to the Lord for his blessings?  Is God’s love reflected in your actions?  Or are you giving Christianity a bad name?

In IF GOD WERE REAL, Dr Avant maintains that many Christians, in their practical, day-to-day lives are living as though they are atheists.
