    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 11, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,675 views

The way to move ahead with your life is to go back, to go back to its roots, go back to its foundations, where you discover what is valuable ...read more

CHURCH PLAN For the last 4 weeks, we have been looking at many of the different parts of church ministry and relating it to the necessary ingredients of becoming not only successful in church but prepared and equipped to live a life outside the church that is available and prepared ...read more
