A Marvelous Faith

Contributed by James A. Kirkland on Apr 19, 2016

Jesus marveled at the faith of the centurion. In the passage we see 4 characteristics of a marvelous faith.

God, The Supernatural Healer

Contributed by Craig Condon on May 20, 2015

How do we respond to people who come to us for help? Do we ignore them? Do we listen to them and then send them on their way instead of helping them? Do we just throw money at the problem by making a donation or do we lower ourselves like Naaman did?

"Finding God's Strength"

Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 22, 2015
