Can a Christian be a nudist? What does the Bible say about nudity?: "Many pagan cultures throughout history considered public nudity normative, especially Spartan, Greek, and Roman societies.

Fish With Trish: "As I travel with the Living Waters team and other ambassadors in the ministry of the gospel, I have seen an encouraging increase in the number of women engaged in evangelism.

Redeemed, How I Love to Proclaim It!: "As much as we’d like to abolish slavery in practice, and even from our memories, the Bible demands that we remember.
