Got Purpose?

Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Feb 12, 2009

Running to win only makes sense if you’re chasing the right prize

I confess to you how I struggled with the scripture this morning. I struggled because when I first read this scripture, I wondered “how can I preach about this “healing” when I know we have people in our congregation who are good, faithful servants, disciples of Jesus Christ, yet who are suffering ...read more
