Listening And Doing

Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Jan 26, 2020

Acting on faith waters faith. Listening to sermons and reading the Bible and doing nothing in response leads to...nothing. God wants way more than nothing for His people. So He's given us the gift and calling of being doers of the Word and not only hearers.
