Life On The East-Side Of Eden

Contributed by Bright Adeyeye on Mar 17, 2020

The garden of Eden was a place of security, comfort, abundance and the awesome presence of God. Sadly, outside is sorrow, suffering and regrets. Just like Adam and Eve, we have the power to choose today.

"i Will Proclaim The Truth" Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 24, 2020

The Bible says that both people and society will grow more wicked as the time approaches for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. The preacher is to face this with the soul-convicting, life transforming power of the Word and Spirit, no matter the cost.
