That Jesus Christ was a man who walked the earth some two thousand years ago is a well-established fact, affirmed even by secular historians. The significant question is not “Did He exist?” but “Who was He, and what did He do?”

## [Has the Church Forgotten How to Wait?](https://blog.truthforlife.org/has-the-church-forgotten-how-to-wait)

## [Lessons in the Jesus Way of Evangelism](https://blog.truthforlife.org/lessons-in-the-jesus-way-of-evangelism)
Whatever framework we may put around it, whatever skills we may bring to it, the great need of our time, and any time, is for ordinary men and women to share with other ordinary men and women the good news of the Lord Jesus Christ. The key to the expansion of the church lies in the active witness of the whole church. People with human fears and human failings—but filled with the Holy Spirit!—should go gossiping the Gospel wherever they are.

## [How to Teach Kids Theology: Deep Truths for Growing Faith](https://blog.truthforlife.org/how-to-teach-kids-theology-deep-truths-for-growing-faith)

## [Every Hand, One Work: Interdependence in Action](https://blog.truthforlife.org/every-hand-one-work-interdependence-in-action)
When Nehemiah came to Jerusalem in the fifth century BC to help rebuild the then-ruined city, he exhorted the people, “Come, let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer suffer derision” (Neh. 2:17). Whatever discussion may have ensued isn’t recorded for us, but the people’s conclusion is plain and clear: “They said, ‘Let us rise up and build,’” and “they strengthened their hands for the good work” (v. 18). [Chapter 3](https://www.truthforlife.org/bible/neh+3) of Nehemiah then goes on to catalogue the names of those who answered the call and the places where they served side by side along the whole wall of Jerusalem, from the priests at the Sheep Gate (v. 1) to Hallohesh and his daughters beside the Tower of Ovens (vv. 11–12) all the way around to the goldsmiths and the merchants beside the Sheep Gate again (v. 32).
