  Get radical results by changing your mind

  For many years I went to church faithfully, week after week, but I wasn’t living a victorious Christian life. I read my Bible every day, served on the evangelism board and went door-to-door telling people about Jesus because I really wanted to serve God. But even though I was doing those things, I was still miserable most of the time. While I learned a good foundation about salvation through God’s grace at my church, I wasn’t learning how to change and be transformed into the image of Christ by renewing my mind, according to God’s Word.

  Crises are opportunities for believers to witness

  Whether or not you are a believer in Jesus, you will face crises in this life.

We will respond, “In Christ alone!”

  100 Years Ago - July 19, 1918

  Several auto loads of Wheatland citizens accepted the invitation from Slater farmers to participate in a tour of their community, Antelope Gap, and Hudson Valley. Many people in Wheatland do not realize that they “are within an hour’s ride of one of the agricultural miracles in the west” where much hard work has gone into “transforming the arid plains into fields of grain” and creating the amazing prosperity evident throughout the Slater area. (To see the full story and the pictures from this Slater tour, go to Wyoming State Archives Newspapers, then to Wheatland, Wheatland World, 1918, July, 19, Page 3).
