    Using points from a book on Nehemiah, by OS Hawkins, this sermon teaches that following God’s Vision requires us to get started well, start with a plan and step out of our comfort zone.

It’s another book written by Paul around 25 years after Jesus' earthly ministry. Corinth is the original sin city. As a Coastal town people were always coming and going. The ...read more
