Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 28 – The Lord Exposes The People’s Sins For They Had Married Sin And Religion Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 3, 2024

What are we projecting to other people about our service to the Lord if we are complaining about it instead of having fun while we are doing it? We get hung up when people in the world try to trip us up and slow down our walk to a crawl.
