    This is the 7th study in the study "Hope In The Darkness". This study looks at remaining faithful in our service to Christ no matter what happens.

    LIVING IN UNFAIRNESS 1 Peter 3:8-22 One of the hardest lessons to learn in life is that life is not always fair.

Yet the Bible says a wind (the breath of God) swept over the surface of the "water" (Genesis 1:2) so there something there ... maybe everything there … the particles ... all the molecules, all of the “substance” of the ...read more
