Redeeming The Time Series

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Apr 30, 2021

Christians are not going to church as often as they once did. If these concerns are legitimate – which I believe they are ...read more

So much technology and media, so many songs, and movies and events, giant arenas and commercials and billions of dollars in industry. I walked that path day by day, it was at times ...read more
