    The Half-Time Speech

     | 6,019 views

    Just as the disciples felt they were winning the game, the second half came and they lost badly. Or so they thought.

    Half-time speeches are meant to motivate. My son Shane forever complains that the Panthers should make “adjustments” at half-time. So half-time is when things happen to win games. Today we are looking at Jesus half-time speech. Jesus and his “Fantastic Twelve” have been on ...read more
