This message challenges the doctrine, the belief, that God is responsible for birth defects. It also examines the question "Do children come from God?"

I have three children. At each of their births, my wife did what mothers tend to do – she held their hands and feet and gently rubbed them. I now know what she was doing. She was counting fingers and toes. And we always thanked God that He blessed us with healthy, normal children. A few years ago ...read more

Murderer's Row! Series

It was very enlightening to me to preach through them. I learned a lot! I trust this series will ...read more
