Abram, The Father Of Faith Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Apr 30, 2023

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on May 14, 2023

Great Is Thy Faithfulness

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 18, 2023

We do not hear many sermons from the Book of Lamentations and I am not really sure why.

But I feel that one of the reasons that I do not preach from the Book of Lamentations any more than I do is because the “Weeping Prophet” Jeremiah wrote it. Most folks enjoy spending their time with people who are laughing and having a good time, and we try to AVOID those who are always MOURNING ...read more
