    Do you ever get into a situation where you are trying to follow God’s will but things just don’t seem to work out? If so, you are in good company. Find out how the Lord used a pinball to guide Paul, and you!

So what gives? Does the fact that things don’t work out perfectly mean we don’t hear God or are somehow not ...read more
