    Sometimes, as a result of heavy and burdensome trials, a feeling of helplessness, hopelessness, and despair may set in upon the child of God. This is not uncommon and should not be viewed as such. This sermon shows how to have hope in Christ.

    Ruth was written in perhaps the 2nd half of the 12th century, making it contemporary with Jephthah and Samson of Judges 11 and following. This is important because if you didn’t know that you’d think there’s no way the events could take place concurrently with Judges. Judges is filled with ...read more

I think that, when you’re talking about hope; the biggest problem with hope is, when we are going thru trouble, we don’t know how to kind of deal with it right? So, check it ...read more
