Can anyone, in face of this, still doubt that He has risen and lives, or rather that He is Himself the Life? Does a dead man prick the consciences of men, so that they throw all the traditions of their fathers to the winds and bow down before the teaching of Christ?” -Athanasius of Alexandria On the Incarnation Sunday School at 9:00am – Worship at 10:15am 1355 Douglass Road – Huntsville, AL 35806 256-895-7279 – www.providencebaptist.us December 21, 2014 Please enter reverently and silence all communication devices.
