    A message explaining how the church grows and why it grows. That same message is applicable to individual Christians, too. Audio will be placed at www.sermonlist.com

    What is it that enables a plant to grow tall? It is the roots. The deeper and stronger the root system, the taller and wider that plant can grow. You can see what I am getting at if you will try to imagine a tall oak tree with the root system of a dandelion. That would be impossible, wouldn’t ...read more
