Summary

We recently celebrated our 5,000th baby saved here in Charlotte. It's awesome to be a part of what God is doing and keeping track of these numbers is so encouraging but is keeping track of those numbers Biblical?

Join us as we look at this from a Biblical perspective. www.sidewalks4life.com charlotte.cities4life.org
