Desde que la serpiente logró con sus artimañas que Eva sucumbiera a ella en el Paraíso y arrastrara también a Adán, el problema de la tentación, entendida como deseo o estímulo irresistible de hacer o conseguir algo prohibido, ha sido un constante problema para el ser humano, y a su vez, origen y causa de la casi totalidad de infortunios y calamidades provocadas que han malogrado la estirpe de Adán desde que fuera expulsada del Edén. En el...

Dudley and a research team go back to 24 ministries still in existence five years after the Church and Community Project's completion.

Nuestro Señor Jesús es el modelo ideal para todo diácono, ya que Él mismo vino, no para ser servido, sino para servir.
