Who do you look up to who lives out his life as a hands-down supreme model of a Christian? This morning, we are examining the testimony of a man named Luke.

Today's Verse: For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. ~Luke 2:11    Today is Christmas!

Today's Verse: Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned? ~Luke 14:34   If you are like me, you like to eat food that is well seasoned. One of my preacher friends tends to pour a considerable amount of salt on his food.
