Jesus is our only gate. And no one should be more in the center of our life than he. The shepherd is the center of attention of the sheep. For he leads them. He leads them out, and then walks ahead of them. So, no wonder that the sheep recognize and heed his voice as...

Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God and the Son of Mary, has risen! We should remember him and also preach him as our Good News (2 Tim 2, 8). We Christians love Jesus Christ although we have not seen him. And even though we do not see him now yet we believe in him...
