Seven people responded & I am going to let their responses help me preach my sermon today as we honor our fathers. Let me begin by reading ...read more

As the elevator ascended the boy watched the signs flash as they went by the floors: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70. The farther up they went, the more ...read more

It is clear to see that Joseph was a father of vision - God’s vision! Joseph had a particular responsibility among men. He would ...read more
