Sunday, Will Graham preached on the story of Adam and Eve, explaining the freedom we were meant to have from the beginning. "True freedom is to live for God as He created you to be," Will said.

Each volunteer counselor attended Christian Life and Witness courses to learn how to help new believers and answer questions they may have. Often, these trainings even lead to spiritual decisions as people assess how close they really are to God. In Fort Wayne, 175 rededicated their life to Christ while taking the course.

Will Graham
"When God doesn’t do what we want him to do, we get mad at God," Will Graham said. "We say, 'God doesn’t care about me.' But that’s not true. He knows your name. ... He knows the hairs on your head."
I surrender all.
