Passing Through Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Aug 8, 2021

The "crisis" at the border is not a Republican or Democrat problem, a conservative or liberal, progressive or libertarian problem … it is a “human” problem … and my goal today is to get you to stop thinking of this as a political issue and start looking at it from a Christian perspective.

Our Authority In Christ - A Sermon On The Demonic Realm

Contributed by Peter Pilt on Apr 19, 2019
