The Day Jesus Came To Church Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Sep 25, 2005

When we come to church, remember to get to the right focus - God, and get to the right agenda - prayer, communion with God.

We are looking at a rare glimpse of Jesus today – His anger over something He is passionate about. It pays for us to take note.
