    Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 29, 2015
     | 7,833 views

And this we will do if ...read more

    It distresses me to preach messages that expose sin within the society in which we live.

However, I am compelled to give an answer to the One Who ...read more

    “You shall not wrong a sojourner or oppress him, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt. You shall not mistreat any widow or fatherless child.
