    Deals with trusting in what faith believes is true

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,694 views

    The 2 priority purposes of the Church are to bring glory to God & to bring people to know God. Anything that gets in the way of that is just window dressing.

    The Nativity Set:: The Shepherds Series

    Contributed by Scott Nichols on Dec 13, 2011

Huddled together for warmth, the shepherds are alone with their thoughts. Each one scanning the horizon. Looking. Perhaps casting a longing eye to the distant lights of ...read more
