Is That You, God?

Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Jul 6, 2011

There is a tremendous spiritual battle taking place in the Church. God is getting ready to pour out His Spirit on the Church in a powerful way. But revival doesn't just happen. And Satan sees what's about to take place and he's lying to you to get you to

IS THAT YOU, GOD? 1 KINGS 19:1 12 One of my favorite movies of all time is an old movie called "My Darling Clementine."

Most Likely To Succeed (Theme From Ray Pritchard) Series

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Sep 9, 2012

Mourning The End Of Summer

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 26, 2011
