    Stages On The Journey

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 2, 2022
     | 2,874 views

Like all journeys, the Christian pilgrimage through life has a point of departure, a destination, and a route through which we travel from one to the other. Verse 39 shows us a pilgrim who has just begun the journey. ...read more
