"What is a Glory Barn?"

ever seen.
A Glory Barn is a place where you can eat (the food is delicious), be entertained and spiritually strengthened all at the same time.

Did you know that Salvation brings peace with God?
John 15:15
"I no longer call you servants, ....but I call you friends."
Through Christ's sacrifice, our past is pardoned and our future secure.
And, "Since we hae been made right with God by our faith, we have
peace with God" (Romans 5:1). Peace with God. What a happy
consequence of faith! Not just peace between countries, peace be
tween neighbors, or peace at home; salvation brings peace with God...
God is no longer a foe, but a friend. We are at peace with Him.
