What Is Greatness?

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 10, 2024

Judas first stole a few shekels and then made some more wrong choices until he was pulled deeper and deeper into depravity. Be careful about minimizing your sins because they may lead you to something even darker and more destructive.
