The Wings Of The Wind Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 9, 2021

Shakespeare was right when he said, "Ill blows the wind that profits nobody." Every wind can profit the Christian if they will, like the Psalmist, look for and see God riding on the wings of the wind.

Fortunately they discovered not only a new world, but new winds that carried them back to Spain. They returned ...read more

What Good Is Church?

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Feb 4, 2020
