5. Run To The Roar
Contributed on Jun 26, 2021
Independence Day: This message looks at what the NT says about fighting; and it reflects on the initial battles of the American Revolution, with an application toward the spiritual conflict that we face in America today.
I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Run to the Roar.” The Fourth of July is a national holiday that many churches recognize; one which “celebrates America’s Declaration of Independence from the tyranny of England under King George the III.”(1) I find it interesting that we have a day ...read more
