TAKE IT HOME QUESTIONS FOR THIS WEEK:

— Take a look at a baby picture of yourself. How different are you today from that photo?
— Verse 3 of 2 Peter 1 tells us that "His divine power HAS GIVEN US everything required for life and godliness..." This is a statement of fact. How does that encourage you?
